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 Nyororo Reef
A reef dive. It goes down to 18 m. You get in from a boat. It suits Advanced divers and up, as a dive guide states it. The coast faces NW: swell from the NW reaches it, and wind from the SE blows out to sea. No dive centre within 10 km, the nearest 36 km away. The sea is about 26°C in July, its coldest month (3 mm wetsuit), and 30°C in March, its warmest (rash vest or 1 to 2 mm). No town nearby. Chunguruma, 22 km away, is the nearest town we list; we have not checked places to stay there. Nearest place to stay we found: Banja Amani Lodge, Pwani, 16 km. Nearest beds: Dar es Salaam, 105 km. Nearest airport: Julius Nyerere International Airport (DAR), 103 km.
