The sea at Mokowe
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.5 ft
- Significant3.0 ft
- Highest expectedHighest6.0 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 6.0 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 6.0 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces south and the wind comes in from the sea at an angle: a bit more surf at the shore and drift along the coast, toward land.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Thursday 29: 3.0 ft with a period of 7 s, from the southeast (slight).
Water temperature
Water temperature →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.

The best window, 11:30 am to 1:00 pm, combines slack water at low tide, light wind and the sun high, though with current. Also worth a look from 5:50 am to 6:30 am, with slack water at high tide and light wind, though with 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.

Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:35–3:35 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity

- 8:15–9:15 am Minor · moonset · 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.
