Eastport, ME Daily Water Report — August 22, 2026

Today in Eastport, the water beckons with a mixed bag of opportunities and challenges. Boaters and divers are in luck with scores of 7.6 and 7.5 out of 10, respectively. The seas are relatively calm, with wave heights hovering around 0.44 meters and a gentle swell from the northeast. This makes for a smooth ride and good visibility underwater, even if the water's a bit cooler than usual at 16.5°C. The air temperature is a comfortable 17.8°C, with a gentle breeze from the northeast at 8 knots, though gusts could spike to 24.3 knots later tonight. Fishing enthusiasts might find the conditions average, with a score of 5.5. The solunar major periods around dawn and dusk could offer the best chances, but the very high chlorophyll levels suggest a bloom that might complicate matters. Surfing isn't at its peak either, with a score of 5, as the modest wave height and short period aren't providing the best ride. For kayakers and sailors, today's conditions aren't too shabby either, scoring 6.8 and 6.9. The steady wind and manageable swell make for a pleasant experience, though you might want to wrap up before the rain window opens between 20:00 and 23:00. Looking ahead, the next few days promise a slight dip in wave height and a reduction in wind speeds, creating even more favorable conditions for water activities. The weather will remain mild, with temperatures ranging from 13.5°C to 23.3°C and lower chances of rain after tomorrow. Best bet for today? Launch your boat or take a dive during the calmer morning hours for a serene experience on the water.
