Waves build over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Sunday 1: 2.4 ft with a period of 5 s, from the northeast (slight).

The moon in Nador
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,451 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 12:34–2:34 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:05–3:05 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 8:43–9:43 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 6:25–7:25 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.
