NOAA provides official high/low predictions for this subordinate station. The dashed curve and tide-now height are bounded half-cosine estimates between adjacent official extrema; no values are extrapolated beyond them.

Dots are official NOAA high/low predictions. The dashed line is a bounded half-cosine estimate between adjacent extrema; it is not an official six-minute NOAA prediction and is never extrapolated beyond those points. Times are shown in the place's local timezone.

Fishing, Crabbing & Surfing Analysis

These scores use the available tide, wind, and marine data. They do not predict catches, report local activity, or replace safety notices.

52/100 · Fair
Fishing
Environmental planning guidance, not a catch guarantee.

Best planning window

2 hours around the next tide change

  • Strong wind35 mph can make shore and small-boat fishing difficult
  • Mostly dry19% precipitation chance
  • Moving waterA rising tide can improve nearshore feeding activity
45/100 · Fair
Crabbing
Conditions are secondary to seasons, closures and safety.

Best planning window

Near slack water, if the marine area is open

  • Regulations requiredConfirm the marine area is open before setting gear
  • Rough handling conditionsStrong wind raises small-craft and gear-retrieval risk
  • Moderate tidal exchange2.8 ft range in the next cycle
48/100 · Fair
Surfing
Offshore model guidance with nearshore uncertainty.

Best planning window

Compare swell direction, local wind and tide before leaving

  • Usable offshore swell6.0 ft NWS forecast waves
  • Wave period not publishedThe surf score uses available NWS wave height and local wind only
  • Strong local wind35 mph may reduce surface quality
  • Nearshore uncertaintyOffshore model conditions are not the same as breaking-wave height at this beach
