Local clock times; heights about mean sea level. On open coasts the times are usually within a quarter of an hour; in bays, estuaries and on the Gulf of Mexico they can be an hour or more out. Slack water, the safest time to dive where there is current, is about half an hour either side of each high and low.

About Antonos Stratos
A wreck dive. It suits Advanced divers and up, as a dive guide states it. The coast faces SW: swell from the SW reaches it, and wind from the NE blows out to sea. No dive centre within 10 km, the nearest 24 km away. The sea is about 9°C in February, its coldest month (drysuit), and 19°C in July, its warmest (7 mm wetsuit and hood). For Advanced divers the best months are usually June and August, with about 7 good days in 7; in January, February and December, about 3. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Batz-sur-Mer.
