The next 7 days. Each day's wave height, green on a good day for expert surfers. A spot that does not suit them is tagged with the level it suits and never goes green for them. 8 spots stay in another town: within your drive, they count for Marina too.

Wave height in feet, the wave energy in kJ under it.GoodUnder each day, the wind in knots: the arrow points where it blows to.

Distances are in a straight line from the middle of Marina, to spots that land joins: none across a bay or on another island. A drive marked "about" is our estimate: the straight line times 1.8 minutes a km, measured on the drives we have routed (half of those come within 21% of the routed time).
