Why this verdict
Main blockers across the next 72 hours:
- Tide/current (34 hours)
- Darkness (33 hours)
- Waves (19 hours)
Jellyfish drift risk
Drift estimate from wind, swell, current and warm water.
Low peak drift risk around Mon 06:00.
water is warm enough for occasional jellyfish; surface drift/current is noticeable; local shoreline exposure is not mapped yet.
Sightings override the model: if you see small purple jellyfish with long trailing tentacles, treat them as sting-capable and give them space.
Upcoming high tides

72-hour historical overview
Scoring methodology (for technical users)
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 is better in daylight, so night hours score lower.
