Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,618 mi away and looks 32′ 45″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:21–3:21 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:53–3:53 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 10:13–11:13 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 6:33–7:33 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
Shallow, gradualShallow, gradual bottom: you need to go 0.95 mi out for 33 ft of water. Right off the beach it already drops to about 13 ft.
From the shoreline (0.35 mi from Turanj) out to sea, heading southwest.

For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. About 13 ft of water 330 ft out: long casts help, and so does a rising tide, which brings fish closer in.
- 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. Shallow near shore: you only reach 33 ft at 0.95 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, go by boat.
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) 1.1 mi out.
