Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 7:16 am to 11:00 am, has a good size and light offshore wind. 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm also works, with a good size.
An estimate for this stretch of coast, not for a specific break: every beach or reef works its own way (its tide, bottom and angle). Check it when you get there.
Follow the flags and the lifeguards, and don’t paddle out if the surf is above your level: this score is a guide, not a substitute for what you see when you get there.

- 2.8 ft swell at 10 s from the west-northwest: some surge on the bottom
- Fresh offshore wind (18 mph): it pushes surface swimmers away from shore
- 0.7 mph current toward the northeast (model)
- Sun high: more light underwater
Not a day for shore diving: swell, wind, current or storms during the best window. If you go, go with a dive shop and only if they give the OK.
- Slack water today: high tide 4:30 am (4:10–4:50 am), low tide 9:50 am (9:30–10:10 am), high tide 4:47 pm (4:30–5:02 pm) and low tide 10:18 pm (10:00–10:40 pm)
- Likely visibility: fair. Swell (up to 3.3 ft at 10 s) over the last few days has stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 67.3 °F: a 5 mm wetsuit.
- Snorkeling: better not, with these waves, wind or current.
- Night dive: dark from 6:56 pm. Waning gibbous (85%), rising at 9:04 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 9:30 am to 11:30 am, combines slack water at low tide and the sun high, though with some swell, fresh wind and current. Also worth a look from 4:00 pm to 5:20 pm, with slack water at high tide, though with some swell, fresh wind and 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.

For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. About 8.9 ft of water 330 ft out: long casts help, and so does a rising tide, which brings fish closer in.
- Swimming. The water gets deeper little by little, but a few dozen yards out you can no longer stand.
- Diving. 33 ft deep 0.4 mi from shore; 66 ft is far out (1.6 mi): for deeper dives, go by boat.
