🎣 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 Nelson Tide Forecast
The coordinates for Nelson (-41.27° S, 173.27° E) place this stretch of New Zealand's coast in the southern hemisphere. Its tidal pattern is semi-diurnal (two high and two low tides per day), with a mean tidal range of 2.3m and spring tides reaching up to 3.2m. The 1.5–3m tidal range drives efficient water exchange in coves and estuaries, supporting good water quality. Mariners in semi-diurnal areas benefit from two high-water windows each day to cross shallow bars or enter marinas. Nearby submarine topography concentrates tidal currents into defined channels, altering local navigation conditions. Access the updated 2026 tide table for Nelson featuring exact high and low water times, ranges, and coefficients for boating and angling. In September, Nelson is in its spring season, a key period for water sports, fishing, diving, and coastal navigation. Predictive modeling employs updated local oceanic constants, ensuring minimal margin of error in peak tidal timing.
