Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 8:30 am to 9:50 am, combines little swell, light wind and weak current. Also good from 12:00 pm to 12:50 pm, with slack water at high tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also worth a look from 2:30 pm to 3:40 pm, with little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high, though with tidal 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.

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: high
  • 2:00–4:00 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:32–4:32 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 12:57–1:57 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 5:07–6:07 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

Drops off fast

The bottom drops off fast: the water is 33 ft deep just 410 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 900 ft.

From the shoreline out to sea, heading northeast.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep350 ft
  • 33 ft deep410 ft
  • 66 ft deep500 ft
  • 164 ft deep900 ft

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 8.5 ft just 330 ft out. Good for casting from rocks, jetties or the beach itself; current and surf hit harder here.
  • Swimming. The bottom drops quickly near the shore and you are soon out of your depth. Keep an eye on kids and weak swimmers.
  • Diving. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 410 ft and 66 ft at 500 ft 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. There is land ahead (an island, a headland or the far shore) 2.1 mi out. Right by the shore the bottom may drop even faster than shown.
