Waves 1.4 ft · 11.0 s from the northwest (306°)

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.7 ft

  • Highest expectedHighest2.7 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 2.7 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 2.7 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 7 mph WNW · gusts 13
Offshore (6.8 mi WNW)Offshore 8 mph W · gusts 13

Onshore wind. The coast faces northwest and the wind blows straight in from the sea: more surf and backwash at the shore, and bait and boats drift toward land.

Satellite (2 days ago) 84.2 °F measured 2.3 mi away

The satellite measured 4.7 °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 is steady these days, with no sudden changes.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+5.4 °F).

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.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 2:35–4:35 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 3:07–5:07 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 9:50–10:50 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 9:24–10:24 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

Very shallow

Very shallow and flat: even 0.95 mi from shore the water is less than 16 ft deep.

From the shoreline (2.1 mi from New Jeshwang) out to sea, heading northwest.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deepnot within 0.95 mi
  • 33 ft deepnot within 0.95 mi
  • 66 ft deepnot within 0.95 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 0.95 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Very shallow: the water doesn't reach 16 ft within 0.95 mi. Cast far from the beach, ideally around high tide.
  • 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 0.95 mi. For deeper dives, take a boat farther out.

There is land ahead (an island, a headland or the far shore) 0.95 mi out.
