WATER TEMPERATURE CAPE MAY HARBOR

TODAY, TUESDAY, APRIL 29, 2025

Current Temperature air / water

APRIL 29, 2025, 4:00 am

Water temperature plays an important role in the behavior of fish. When the water is cold, fish are lethargic and inactive, and the same happens if the water is too hot.

At this moment the current water temperature in Cape May Harbor is -. The average water temperature in Cape May Harbor today is -.

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.

NOTICE

Our prediction algorithm for water temperature is in development phase. Although in most places we get a value very close to the actual sea water temperature, it may not be accurate in certain areas. Please, use with caution.

Wave direction - (-°)

Significant height -

Wave period -

Most frequent waves

The most frequent wave height will be about half the height of the significant wave.

Significant height

About 14% of waves will be higher than the significant wave height (about 1 in every 7 waves).

Maximum waves

It is normal to expect a wave of twice the height of the significant wave about 3 times in 24 hours.

This means at this moment you need to be prepared for a wave of - before heading out on the water.

Significant wave height

It is normal for waves to vary in height from one to the next. To give you an idea of the range of waves to expect at a given time, we consider the significant wave height as the average height of the highest third of the waves in the open sea.

The significant wave height provides an estimation of wave heights recorded by a trained observer from a fixed point at sea because we tend to pay more attention to the larger waves.

MORNING

AFTERNOON

Tidal coefficient

APRIL 29, 2025

The tidal coefficient today is 96. With such a high coefficient we will have big tides and the currents will also be very evident. At noon the tidal coefficient drops to 90. The day ends with a tidal coefficient of 83.

The heights today are -0.8 ft, 4.7 ft, -0.5 ft and 6.1 ft referenced to Mean Lower Low Water (MLLW).

We can compare these levels with the maximum high tide recorded in the tide tables for Cape May Harbor 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 April of 2025.These values give us a rough idea of the tidal amplitude in Cape May Harbor, forecast in April.

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 Harbor, the wind in Cape May Harbor and the surf forecast in Cape May Harbor before you go fishing.

The times reflected in the tidal table for Cape May Harbor are predictions valid as references for sports fishing in areas near the coast of Cape May Harbor. THEY ARE NOT SUITABLE FOR NAVIGATION. Remember that to practice any activity at sea like diving, windsurfing and fishing from a boat or underwater fishing should always be consulted with the official tide tables of the port of Cape May Harbor. + info

The heights are expressed in feet referenced to Mean Lower Low Water (MLLW). It is the average of the lower low water height of each tidal day observed over the official time segment over which tide observations are taken and reduced to obtain mean value.

OUTSTANDING PERIODS

best periods of the year

The solunar periods indicate the best times of day for fishing in Cape May Harbor.
