The moon in Kanlıca
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,576 mi away and looks 32′ 46″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 2:24–4:24 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:56–4:56 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 11:03 am–12:03 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 7:49–8:49 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
Deepens quicklyThe bottom deepens quickly: 33 ft of water 1,150 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 0.5 mi.
From the shoreline out to sea, heading north.
How far from shore
- 16 ft deep1,000 ft
- 33 ft deep1,150 ft
- 66 ft deep0.25 mi
- 164 ft deep0.5 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. 33 ft of water just 1,150 ft from shore: a good cast reaches deep water. Current and surf hit harder here.
- Swimming. The water gets deeper little by little, but a few dozen yards out you can no longer stand.
- Diving. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 1,150 ft and 66 ft at 0.25 mi 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) 1.1 mi out. The profile is turned slightly from the coast so it does not run into an island or a headland. Where the bottom comes up to the surface there are shoals, rocks or an islet next to the profile.
