Callao, Peru Daily Water Report — August 23, 2026

Today is a great day to dive into Callao's waters, with diving scoring an impressive 8.2 out of 10. The calmest waves are expected around 8:00 AM at a manageable 1.1 meters, making it prime time for divers to explore beneath the surface. The water temperature is a comfortable 21°C, which is notably 4.6°C warmer than average, perfect for an extended underwater adventure. Surfers won't be disappointed, either, with a solid score of 8 out of 10. The consistent wave height of 1.1 to 1.2 meters and a period of 10 seconds offer decent rides throughout the day. The swell coming from 185 degrees aligns well with the southeast winds, which are gentle at 5 knots but can gust up to 12 knots, adding a bit of zest to your session. For those considering boating or kayaking, conditions are favorable but not extraordinary, with scores of 7 and 6.6, respectively. The wind is mild, ranging from 2.4 to 7.8 knots, and the ocean current is moving at 0.5 m/s toward 225 degrees. However, keep an eye on the wind gusts, which peak at 21.8 knots around 5:00 PM, potentially challenging your return journey. Fishing is slightly above average with a score of 5.9. The solunar tables suggest the best times to cast your line are during the major periods from 24:11 to 02:11 and 12:11 to 14:11. Despite the lack of tide data, the high chlorophyll levels at 1.96 mg/m³ suggest that fish might be more active today. As we look ahead, the weather remains consistent with no rain in sight and temperatures hovering between 18 and 24°C. Winds are expected to stay moderate, peaking at around 9 knots in the coming days. For the best experience today, dive early when the waves are at their calmest, and let the warm waters guide your exploration.
