🎣 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 Kanton Tide Forecast
Kanton is located at -2.81° S, 171.72° W on the coast of Kiribati, in the southern hemisphere. Its tidal pattern is semi-diurnal (two high and two low tides per day), with a mean tidal range of 0.7m and spring tides reaching up to 1m. 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. Intense weather events such as storms can create temporary storm surges that add to the astronomical high tide. Access the updated 2026 tide table for Kanton featuring exact high and low water times, ranges, and coefficients for boating and angling. In October, Kanton 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.
