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 Blue Bay Marine Park

The coast faces SE: swell from the SE reaches it, and wind from the NW blows out to sea. No dive centre within 10 km, the nearest 29 km away. The sea is about 24°C in July, its coldest month (5 mm wetsuit), and 28°C in January, its warmest (3 mm wetsuit). The town to stay in is Blue Bay. Within 5 km we also list 2 surf spots and 1 dive site.
