OP
I have been to Punta Tuniche many times and I cannot remember the curret there NOT being ripping. The underwater topography there makes the prevailing current squirt over the top of the reef.
Bands of rain. Windy at times.

Where do they announce the port closing? Or do they? Or do they?
OP
The harbor master sends out an email blast to dive ops, etc., I believe. They also hang a flag out on the front of the HM's building on Melgar, or at least they used to.
