Conditions at Amaryllis

Amaryllis is open to the sea from the N–S, so waves build there when the wind blows from those directions. Land shelters it from the SW–NW.

Over the next 7 days it's good or better on Sun. Wed, Thu and Fri are only a trend so far.

The water is 28 °C at the surface and stays warm past 34 m, so a 3 mm wetsuit suits most dives.

Shelter

Open water in each direction from the site. Longer petals mean more open sea, so more exposure to wind waves and swell from that direction.N: open sea (over 200 km)NNE: open sea (over 200 km)NE: open sea (over 200 km)ENE: open sea (over 200 km)E: 143.1 km of open waterESE: open sea (over 200 km)SE: open sea (over 200 km)SSE: open sea (over 200 km)S: open sea (over 200 km)SSW: 5.3 km of open waterSW: 2.5 km of open waterWSW: 1.8 km of open waterW: 1.7 km of open waterWNW: 1.8 km of open waterNW: 2.6 km of open waterNNW: 7.9 km of open waterNESW

Sheltered from SW–NW: land blocks the waves.
