Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 4 mph NE · gusts 12

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

Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces west and the wind comes off the land at an angle: calmer water near the shore, and bait and boats drift out to sea.

The best window, 6:00 am to 10:00 am, has light offshore wind, 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
  • 1:18–3:18 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:50–3:50 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 10:06–11:06 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 6:34–7:34 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 fast

The bottom drops off fast: the water is 33 ft deep just 550 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 2 mi.

From the shoreline (1,150 ft from Komiža) out to sea, heading west.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep360 ft
  • 33 ft deep550 ft
  • 66 ft deep0.3 mi
  • 164 ft deep2 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 12 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 550 ft and 66 ft at 0.3 mi from shore.

Right by the shore the bottom may drop even faster than shown.
