Reedy Point, DE Daily Water Report — August 26, 2026

Today at Reedy Point, the waters are calling out to boaters and kayakers with a near-perfect invitation. Boating scores a stellar 9/10, thanks to the gentle northeasterly winds peaking at just under 9 knots, and wave heights barely nudging 0.2 meters. Kayakers, you'll also find excellent conditions with an 8.2/10 score, as the calm waters and clear skies make for a serene paddle. For those looking to fish, the score of 6.9/10 suggests a decent day, especially during the solunar major periods from 9:35 to 11:35 AM and again from 9:35 to 11:35 PM. The tides are cooperative, with a high tide peaking at 1.87 meters just after 11 PM, providing some interesting opportunities for evening anglers. Divers can enjoy a commendable 7.6/10 score, with stable weather, a water temperature of 25°C, and minimal wave action. However, the high chlorophyll levels indicate a bloom, which might affect visibility underwater, so keep that in mind. Surfers, unfortunately, won't find much excitement with a score of 4.5/10, as the waves are barely stirring at 0.04 meters. Sailing enthusiasts are looking at a 7/10 day; the consistent breeze offers a pleasant ride, though gusts could reach up to 14.8 knots by late evening. Wildlife watchers get a decent 7.1/10, with the solunar and tidal influences creating favorable conditions for sightings, particularly around the low tide at 5:08 AM and 5:04 PM. Looking ahead, expect a similar pattern of calm seas with rising temperatures over the next few days. Thursday may bring a bit more wind, and there's a higher chance of rain, so enjoy today's tranquility while it lasts. Your best bet today? Set sail or paddle out early to catch the sunrise over the glassy waters.
