🏖️ Recommended Activities
At low tide the waters tend to be calmer.
Access only within the 2 hours near the lowest tide.
Ask the skipper about the conditions.
🎣 Solunar Table
Major Periods (2h)
Minor Periods (1h)
Based on the Solunar Theory (John Alden Knight): fish and wildlife tend to feed more during the periods when the moon is overhead or underfoot (major) and at moonrise/moonset (minor). The score considers the lunar phase and the crossing of major periods with the local high tide.

📘 About Cairns Tide Forecast
With geographic coordinates of -16.92° S, 145.78° E, Cairns is a key coastal reference in Australia. Its tidal pattern is mixed semi-diurnal (unequal tidal heights across the day), with a mean tidal range of 2m and spring tides reaching up to 2.2m. The 1.5–3m tidal range drives efficient water exchange in coves and estuaries, supporting good water quality. Mixed tides blend characteristics of diurnal and semi-diurnal patterns — the morning tide may differ greatly from the afternoon tide in height and current. Tidal dynamics in this bay or inlet are shaped by the geometry of its entrance, which can amplify or reduce range relative to the open sea. Access the updated 2026 tide table for Cairns featuring exact high and low water times, ranges, and coefficients for boating and angling. In September, Cairns is in its spring season, a key period for water sports, fishing, diving, and coastal navigation. Reported times and heights derive from fundamental harmonic component analysis (M2, S2, K1, O1) applied to these coordinates.
