Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,576 mi away and looks 32′ 46″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 2:27–4:27 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:59–4:59 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 11:06 am–12:06 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 7:52–8:52 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.

For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.3 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. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 0.4 mi and 66 ft at 0.65 mi from shore.
Rough estimate: here the data comes in cells of about 0.3 mi and misses details near shore (rocks, sandbars, small coves).
