Bayou La Batre Bridge, AL Daily Water Report — August 25, 2026

Today’s conditions at Bayou La Batre Bridge are a green light for boaters and kayakers, with a stellar boating score of 9.1/10 and kayaking not far behind at 8.5/10. The water is calm, with wave heights peaking at a mere 0.2 meters, and a gentle north breeze averaging 2 knots. This makes for smooth sailing, though sailors might find the wind a bit too tame for thrilling maneuvers, reflected in a modest score of 5.6/10. Anglers will find the fishing conditions decent, scoring 7.3/10, slightly up from yesterday. The major solunar feeding times are mid-morning and late evening, so plan your cast accordingly. The waxing gibbous moon, rising at 18:02, might just add that extra bit of luck during the evening bite. Divers can enjoy a solid 7.5/10 day, matching yesterday's conditions. The water temperature is a warm 31°C, a bit above average, which should make for a comfortable dive. Visibility is decent at 13.1 km, and with no rain on the horizon, it’s a good time to explore underwater. Surfers, however, might want to sit this one out or head elsewhere, as the waves are barely making an impact with a score of 5.3/10. The swell is coming from the south, but at only 0.12 meters, it’s not quite enough to get the adrenaline pumping. Looking ahead, the rest of the week holds similar conditions with slight increases in wind and a chance of rain peaking on the 27th. For now, enjoy the calm before that potential storm. If you're looking for the best window today, aim for the evening when the waters are calmest around 22:00. In summary, today is a prime day for boating and kayaking, with calm waters and minimal wind—perfect for a peaceful paddle or a leisurely cruise.
