🎣 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 Rikitea Tide Forecast
Situated along the coastline of France (-23.13° S, 134.95° W), Rikitea lies in the southern hemisphere. Its tidal pattern is semi-diurnal (two high and two low tides per day), with a mean tidal range of 0.5m and spring tides reaching up to 0.6m. Oyster and shellfish farmers exploit the 0.5–1.5m range to alternate aerial exposure and submersion in their culture beds. The semi-diurnal cycle flushes coves frequently, shortening water residence time and maintaining high oxygenation levels. The coast here is influenced by large-scale ocean currents that modulate water temperature throughout the year. Access the updated 2026 tide table for Rikitea featuring exact high and low water times, ranges, and coefficients for boating and angling. In October, Rikitea is in its spring season, a key period for water sports, fishing, diving, and coastal navigation. Predictive output is continuously benchmarked against time series recorded by regional coastal reference stations.
