The water rises and falls 8.8 ft between the highest high and the lowest low: a large range for this place. 70 is an average tide here; 90 and above means spring tides; below 45, neap tides.

Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.

Where this tide comes from

B · Nearby station

Muarajawa has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Bajor (TICON-4), 8.8 mi away. On the open coast the difference is usually a few minutes and inches; inside estuaries, rivers and enclosed bays it can be much larger.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 1:00 pm to 2:20 pm, combines slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind and the sun high. Also good from 7:00 am to 9:20 am, with slack water at high tide, little swell and light wind.

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.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 1:15–3:15 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:47–3:47 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 7:59–8:59 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 8:36–9:36 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.
