Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 11:00 am to 12:10 pm, combines slack water at high tide, small waves, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 2:20 pm to 3:00 pm, with small waves, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 8:20 am to 9:20 am, with small waves, light wind and weak current.
Slack water comes from the tide: in inlets, channels and between islands the water can keep running for an hour or two after. Ask the local dive shop.
Never dive alone and check with the local dive shop: this rating is a guide, not a substitute for a professional.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,461 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: high- 12:39–2:39 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:11–3:11 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 10:39–11:39 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 4:36–5:36 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.

- 66 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
- 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 1,250 ft): cast far from the beach and fish the high tide, when there is more water close in.
- Swimming. A very gentle way in with plenty of shallow water, good for kids. At low tide the water can be far out.
- Diving. 33 ft deep 0.45 mi from shore; 66 ft is far out (beyond 3.1 mi): for deeper dives, 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.
