Wave height

Offshore. The shore at Dublin faces E, so a SW wind is blowing off the land, cleaner wave faces but anything floating is pushed out to sea.

Wind from DWD ICON via Open-Meteo. Sea temperature and wave height are modelled at about 8 km resolution, so treat inshore values as a guide.

Heights are metres relative to Ordnance Datum Malin. Charted depths use chart datum instead, which is why these figures do not match an Admiralty tide table number for number. This is explained here.
