The best window, 9:20 am to 12:20 pm, combines little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high.

We don't have a reliable tide for Niforeika, so slack water doesn't count in the rating.

Never dive alone and check with the local dive shop: this rating is a guide, not a substitute for a professional.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 1:55–3:55 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:28–4:28 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 10:22–11:22 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:33–8:33 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 0.3 mi from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 1.9 mi.

From the shoreline (0.95 mi from Niforeika) out to sea, heading north.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep700 ft
  • 33 ft deep0.3 mi
  • 66 ft deep0.9 mi
  • 164 ft deep1.9 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 6.6 ft just 330 ft out. Good for casting from rocks, jetties or the beach itself; 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. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 0.3 mi and 66 ft at 0.9 mi from shore.

Inside bays, estuaries and harbors the bottom changes a lot from spot to spot (channels and shoals): use this only as a rough guide.
