Waves 2.7 ft · 6.3 s from the southeast (133°)

Current 0.0 mph toward the E

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common1.4 ft

  • Highest expectedHighest5.6 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 5.6 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 5.6 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 1 mph SSE · gusts 5
Offshore (17 mi SSW)Offshore 3 mph WNW · gusts 6

Onshore wind. The coast faces south and the wind blows straight in from the sea: more surf and backwash at the shore, and bait and boats drift toward land.

Water temperature

Water now76.6 °F
Today 75.6–76.6 °F air: 70 / 72 °F
Satellite (2 days ago) 73.2 °F measured 0.3 mi away

The satellite measured 3.4 °F less 2 days ago than the model gives now: the water is probably colder than the forecast says.

Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water warms over the next few days: about 80.0 °F by Wednesday 4.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+2.4 °F).

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 1:31–3:31 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:03–4:03 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 7:22–8:22 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 9:44–10:44 pm Minor · moonrise · medium activity

According to solunar theory, fish feed more when the moon passes overhead or underfoot (major periods, about 2 h) and when it rises or sets (minor periods, 1 h). It works best around new and full moon.
