Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,618 mi away and looks 32′ 45″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: high- 1:36–3:36 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:08–4:08 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 11:41 am–12:41 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 5:34–6:34 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

- 16 ft deepnot within 0.3 mi
- 33 ft deepnot within 0.3 mi
- 66 ft deepnot within 0.3 mi
- 164 ft deepnot within 0.3 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 14 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. Shallow: the water doesn't reach 33 ft within 0.3 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) 0.3 mi out. Where the bottom comes up to the surface there are shoals, rocks or an islet next to the profile.
