🌊 Upcoming Dive Forecast 🌊

Swell builds steadily as the weekend progresses, becoming significantly larger by Sunday.

Thursday-Friday offers the calmest seas of the stretch, making it the ideal day to hop on our boat dive before conditions ramp up.

Expect typical Monterey Bay conditions with cool mornings, mild daytime temps, and generally favorable visibility early on. Winds and swell remain manageable at first, then increase heading into the weekend.

🤿 Our take:
If you’ve been eyeing a boat dive, Friday is your best window. As always, we’ll continue to monitor conditions closely and keep safety first.

Weekend Dive Outlook
🌞 Weather: Mostly sunny skies with mild temps all weekend. (Temps in the 60s + clear to partly sunny skies) .

➡️ Friday: Bigger swell early, then conditions start easing — still decent for diving as the day goes on.

➡️ Saturday: Smaller and calmer seas — blue conditions = GO for SCUBA! 🤿✨

➡️ Sunday: Even lighter swell — dark blue means even better diving 🎯 🐠!

With swell dropping throughout the weekend, Saturday & Sunday offer the best conditions. Early mornings usually give the smoothest water and max visibility.

📌 Safety Note: Surf along the coast can still produce sneaker waves and currents. Always scout your entry/exit and dive with a buddy!
