Where this tide comes from
Iboundji has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global FES2022 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 1.4 mi away). It may differ from the real tide by a few minutes and inches, and more with wind or storms. Heights are above mean sea level, not chart datum, so low tides are negative. Not for navigation.
Model attribution: FES2022 Tide was produced by LEGOS, NOVELTIS and CLS, funded by CNES, and distributed by AVISO (https://doi.org/10.24400/527896/a01-2024.004), AVISO licence (https://www.aviso.altimetry.fr/fileadmin/documents/data/License_Aviso.pdf). Modified by TidePlanet: constants interpolated from the nearest model cells offshore; heights above mean sea level.
The sea at Iboundji
Sea stateSea state: smooth
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common0.4 ft
- Significant0.7 ft
- Highest expectedHighest1.5 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 1.5 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 1.5 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Offshore wind. The coast faces west and the wind blows from land out to sea: calm shore and clean waves, but watch the drift out to sea.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Thursday 29: 1.1 ft with a period of 4 s, from the west-southwest (smooth).
Water temperature
Water temperature →The satellite measured 3.4 °F less 2 days ago than the model gives now: the water is probably colder than the forecast says.
Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water cools over the next few days: about 85.1 °F by Wednesday 4.
Water warmer than normal for late October (+4.2 °F).

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

Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 12:20 pm to 1:50 pm, combines slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 6:00 am to 7:20 am, with slack water at high tide, little swell, 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 226,618 mi away and looks 32′ 45″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:45–3:45 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:18–4:18 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 8:32–9:32 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 9:03–10:03 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.

For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 2.7 mi): 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. Shallow: the water doesn't reach 33 ft within 3.1 mi. For deeper dives, take a boat farther out.
Rough estimate: here the data comes in cells of about 0.3 mi and misses details near shore (rocks, sandbars, small coves).
