Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.2 ft
- Significant2.3 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 4.8 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 4.8 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Offshore wind. The coast faces south and the wind blows from land out to sea: calm shore and clean waves, but watch the drift out to sea.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Tuesday 3: 4.4 ft with a period of 6 s, from the east-northeast (moderate).

Surf in Shangqi Village today
Surf today
Poor- 1.2–1.8 ft surf at the shore, small: good for learning or a longboard
- 2.4 ft swell at 5 s from the east-northeast, short: weak, messy waves; it hits this coast at an angle
- Almost no wind (4 mph): glassy water
- Falling tide (low tide at 7:52 am)
- Light: First light 5:49 am · sunrise 6:12 am · sunset 5:30 pm · last light 5:53 pm
- Tide: high 1:21 am (19.5 ft), low 7:52 am (1.6 ft), high 2:15 pm (19.5 ft) and low 8:12 pm (6.2 ft). Every break has its own tide: some work at low tide and others at high tide. The tide doesn’t change the score here.
- Water at 77.4 °F: boardshorts or a swimsuit and a rash guard.
- Energy: 25 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 6:00 am to 10:00 am, has glassy water, though with a short-period swell. 3:00 pm to 5:53 pm can also work, though with small waves, a short-period swell and wind swell.
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.

Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 1:40 pm to 2:50 pm, combines slack water at high tide, light wind and the sun high, though with current. Also worth a look from 6:40 am to 8:20 am, with slack water at low 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- 1:11–3:11 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity

For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 2 mi): cast far from the beach and fish the high tide, when there is more water close in.
- Swimming. A very gentle way in with plenty of shallow water, good for kids. At low tide the water can be far out.
- Diving. Shallow: the water doesn't reach 33 ft within 3.1 mi. For deeper dives, take a boat farther out.
Rough estimate: here the data comes in cells of about 0.3 mi and misses details near shore (rocks, sandbars, small coves).
