Jellyfish drift risk

Drift estimate from wind, swell, current and warm water.

Moderate · 45/100

Moderate peak drift risk around Fri 19:00.

warm water supports seasonal jellyfish activity; wind has an onshore component; surface drift/current is noticeable.

Sightings override the model: if you see small purple jellyfish with long trailing tentacles, treat them as sting-capable and give them space.

We score each hour from 0 to 1 using daylight and these weighted components:

  • Wave height (35%): best below 0.36m, then decreases as it rises.
  • Wind speed (25%): best below 5.4m/s, lower is better.
  • Sea surface temperature (15%): best within 20.6°C to 30.4°C.
  • Tide and currents (15%): best around slack/high-tide windows.
  • Daylight (10%): visibility and safety gate (outside daylight scores lower).
