Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 1:50–3:50 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:22–4:22 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 10:21–11:21 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:23–8:23 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

Deepens quickly

The bottom deepens quickly: 33 ft of water 1,200 ft from shore.

From the shoreline (0.25 mi from Néa Anchiálos) out to sea, heading southeast.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep950 ft
  • 33 ft deep1,200 ft
  • 66 ft deep1.2 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. 33 ft of water just 1,200 ft from shore: a good cast reaches deep water. Current and surf hit harder here.
  • Swimming. The water gets deeper little by little, but a few dozen yards out you can no longer stand.
  • Diving. 33 ft deep 1,200 ft from shore; 66 ft is far out (1.2 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.
