Mona Island, PR Daily Water Report — August 24, 2026

Today, Mona Island offers a mixed bag for water enthusiasts, with sailing taking the top spot at a high 9.2/10. The steady ESE winds at 12 knots, gusting to 16, provide an ideal push for sails, while the manageable wave height of 1.1m keeps things exciting yet safe. If you're looking to dive, conditions are almost as favorable, scoring an 8.6/10. The low chlorophyll levels promise clear blue waters, and a stable water temperature of 28.6°C enhances the experience. Fishing enthusiasts will find the best window between 4:25 AM and 6:25 AM, aligning with the solunar major period. The 8.2/10 score suggests decent luck, especially with the stable barometric pressure and gentle tidal shifts. As the tide climbs to a modest high of 0.28m by 8:37 PM, anglers might want to adjust their strategies accordingly. For those leaning towards surfing, a 7.2/10 rating means fun but not epic waves. The 0.9m swell from 132 degrees and a moderate 5.4-second period offer decent rides, with the calmest conditions expected near 6 PM. Kayakers, on the other hand, might want to skip today. A low score of 3.7/10 reflects the challenge posed by the wind and ocean current of 1.8 m/s toward 66 degrees. Comparing to recent days, today's conditions are slightly more favorable for fishing and sailing than on the 23rd, which saw lower fishing scores and weaker winds for sailing. As we look ahead, expect a slight dip in wave heights by the 30th, with a chance of rain tomorrow and peak winds easing to 9.5 knots. For a memorable outing, hoist those sails and enjoy the breezy ESE winds while they last—today is a sailor's delight on Mona Island!
