Edinburgh · open water conditions information
Portobello is a coastal location in Edinburgh, one of 3 Edinburgh spots covered by NippyIndex.
The shore faces broadly north, so it is most open to wind and swell arriving from the north.
As a tidal location, its tide predictions are referenced to the nearest tidal station, Leith.
NippyIndex draws on published marine and weather data (sea state, wave information and water temperature) and UKHO tidal predictions.
