Magueyes Island, PR Daily Water Report — August 24, 2026
Today at Magueyes Island, the water's calling for a dive, with an impressive 8.6/10 score making it the top pick. Dive conditions are stellar, thanks to manageable wave heights around 0.9 meters and a warm sea surface temperature of 29.3°C. Visibility is decent, and the moderate chlorophyll levels indicate standard coastal water quality. The wind is a bit lively, reaching up to 22 knots in gusts, so keep an eye on surface conditions. For those with fishing on their minds, it's a solid day with an 8.2/10 score. The solunar major period from 4:21 to 6:21 AM and again from 4:21 to 6:21 PM offers prime times to cast your line. The tide is on a gentle swing, with a low at 9:55 AM and a high at 8:53 PM, which should complement your fishing efforts. Sailors can enjoy a robust 8/10 rating today. The southeast winds, while gusty, provide a decent push. However, be prepared for the occasional strong gust and keep an eye on the horizon for any quick weather changes. Surfing scores a 7/10, with wave heights around 0.92 meters and a short period of 4.75 seconds. The swell direction from 128 degrees should provide some decent rides, especially as the wind calms towards the evening. Kayakers, however, might find today's conditions less appealing with a 5.3/10. The gusty winds and current make for a challenging paddle, so consider sticking closer to shore or waiting for a calmer window. Looking ahead, expect more variable conditions with increasing chances of rain over the next few days. The winds are set to ease slightly, with wave heights fluctuating around the 1-meter mark. If you're planning to hit the water today, diving is your best bet for a rewarding experience.
