Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,666 mi away and looks 32′ 45″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 2:07–4:07 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:40–4:40 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 9:27–10:27 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 8:53–9:53 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.

Water depth
Drops off fastThe bottom drops off fast: the water is 33 ft deep just 270 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 550 ft.

- 164 ft deep550 ft
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 52 ft just 330 ft out. Good for casting from rocks, jetties or the beach itself; current and surf hit harder here.
- Swimming. The bottom drops quickly near the shore and you are soon out of your depth. Keep an eye on kids and weak swimmers.
- Diving. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 270 ft and 66 ft at 350 ft from shore.
Right by the shore the bottom may drop even faster than shown.
