The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.

Offshore wind. The coast faces southwest and the wind blows from land out to sea: calm shore and clean waves, but watch the drift out to sea.

The best window, 6:00 am to 10:00 am, has glassy water, though with barely any waves.

An estimate for this stretch of coast, not for a specific break: every beach or reef works its own way (its tide, bottom and angle). Check it when you get there.

Follow the flags and the lifeguards, and don’t paddle out if the surf is above your level: this score is a guide, not a substitute for what you see when you get there.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 1:15–3:15 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:47–3:47 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 10:02–11:02 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 6:32–7:32 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

Deepens quickly

The bottom deepens quickly: 33 ft of water 1,100 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 2.2 mi.

From the shoreline (2.4 mi from Blato) out to sea, heading southwest.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep700 ft
  • 33 ft deep1,100 ft
  • 66 ft deep1.2 mi
  • 164 ft deep2.2 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. 33 ft of water just 1,100 ft from shore: a good cast reaches deep water. Current and surf hit harder here.
  • Swimming. The water gets deeper little by little, but a few dozen yards out you can no longer stand.
  • Diving. 33 ft deep 1,100 ft from shore; 66 ft is far out (1.2 mi): for deeper dives, go by boat.

The profile is turned slightly from the coast so it does not run into an island or a headland.
