Dive site forecast

Expected water movement at Sydney shore dive sites, forecast from swell and wind, so you can choose a site before you drive there.

The graphs show the expected water movement at the dive sites and provide a perspective in terms of comfort of entry/exit for the average scuba diver loaded with equipment. This can reasonably be used for the selection of the dive site, but ultimately it's a diver's responsibility to assess the actual conditions on site (the author assumes no responsibility for the safety of individuals who rely on the provided information).
