Sea Report: Is based on what we see when we look out of our window. It is meant for holiday makers and not seafaring explorers the ilk of Brendan, and Cabot, the true discoverer of America, or that old fraud Columbus (who didn't need a weather report because he never actually went anywhere).

For a more detailed report visit the following excellent web sites:

First try Met Éireann, the Irish National Meteorological Service.

Second try Magic Seaweed, a site for surfers but it really helps toforecast the weather on Cape.
