Porto turistico di Amantea

Shelter by wind direction

Good shelter in north-east and east wind.

Partial shelter in south-east (sirocco) wind.

No shelter in north (tramontana), south, south-west, west and north-west wind.

In the most open sector, up to 30 NM of open water towards the south-west.

Swell can come in from south-south-east to north-north-west (168°–348°).

Shelter is estimated from open water and swell, not from wind strength: a strong wind can still gust over the land.
