Stay in shade near midday when the sun is strongest.
Wear T-shirt, cap and glasses.
Apply SPF 50+ sunscreen.
Stay in the shade as long as possible and avoid being outside during midday hours.
The effects of Water Temperature
Fish are cold blooded, which means their metabolism is strongly influenced by the temperature of their surrounding environment. Fish want to stay comfortable. Consequently, even a small change or break will cause fish to move from one location to another.
In general, this behavior varies for each species and place, so we can not specify an ideal water temperature, however as a general rule we will try to avoid the temperatures abnormally cold in summer and too warm in winter. Remember, look for the comfort zones and you will find the fish.
At this moment the current water temperature in Cape May (Atlantic Ocean) is -. The average water temperature in Cape May (Atlantic Ocean) today is -.
NOTICE
We consider the waves in the open sea.
The waves you will find on the shore can be slightly affected by the orientation of the coastline and the seabed of the beaches, although in most cases they are usually equivalent.
Today Wednesday, 15th of August of 2018, the sun rose in Cape May (Atlantic Ocean) at 6:13 am and sunset will be at 7:54 pm. In the high tide and low tide chart, we can see that the first low tide was at 5:36 am and the next low tide at 5:57 pm. The only high tide of the day was at 12:01 pm.
Today we have 13 hours and 41 minutes of sun. The solar transit was at 1:03 pm.
The tidal coefficient today is 82, a high value and therefore the range of tides and currents will also be high. At noon the tidal coefficient drops to 75. The day ends with a tidal coefficient of 68.
We can compare these levels with the maximum high tide recorded in the tide tables for Cape May (Atlantic Ocean) which is of 6.6 ft and a minimum height of -1.3 ft.
The following graph shows the progression of the tidal coefficient in the month of August of 2018.These values give us a rough idea of the tidal amplitude in Cape May (Atlantic Ocean), forecast in August.
Large coefficients indicate important high and low tides; major currents and movements usually take place on the sea bed. But bear in mind that this tidal amplitude may be greatly affected by the weather and you should also consult the weather forecast in Cape May (Atlantic Ocean) and the wind and wave forecast in Cape May (Atlantic Ocean) before you go fishing.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
The moon rose in the east (94°) at 10:55 am and will set in the west (263°) at 10:49 pm.
When the solunar period coincides with sunrise or sunset, we can expect more activity than initially planned. These peak periods are reflected in green. We additionally point out in the chart the periods of greatest activity during the year with a big blue fish on the period bar + info
