Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 10:00 am to 1:00 pm, combines little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also worth a look from 5:00 pm to 6:00 pm, with little swell and light wind, though with current.

We don't have a reliable tide for Clyde River, so slack water doesn't count in the rating.

Never dive alone and check with the local dive shop: this rating is a guide, not a substitute for a professional.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: high
  • 1:46–3:46 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:17–4:17 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 10:41–11:41 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 6:49–7:49 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

Very shallow

Very shallow and flat: even 1.2 mi from shore the water is less than 16 ft deep.

From the shoreline (2.3 mi from Clyde River) out to sea, heading southeast.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deepnot within 1.2 mi
  • 33 ft deepnot within 1.2 mi
  • 66 ft deepnot within 1.2 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 1.2 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Very shallow: the water doesn't reach 16 ft within 1.2 mi. Cast far from the beach, ideally around high tide.
  • Swimming. A very gentle way in with plenty of shallow water, good for kids. At low tide the water can be far out.
  • Diving. Shallow: the water doesn't reach 33 ft within 1.2 mi. For deeper dives, take a boat farther out.

Inside bays, estuaries and harbors the bottom changes a lot from spot to spot (channels and shoals): use this only as a rough guide. There is land ahead (an island, a headland or the far shore) 1.2 mi out.
