The sea at Johor Bahru
Sea stateSea state: calm (rippled)
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common0.1 ft
- Significant0.1 ft
- Highest expectedHighest0.3 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 0.3 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 0.3 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Onshore wind. The coast faces south and the wind blows straight in from the sea: more surf and backwash at the shore, and bait and boats drift toward land.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Thursday 29: 0.1 ft with a period of 4 s, from the east (calm (rippled)).
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.

Your diving day at a glance

Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 2:12–4:12 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high 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.
