24 June 2023 Sardine Updates

Starting with this inviting photo by Adam Kamdar in Durban. Which reveals a completely different ocean this morning. It’s not perfect for anything. But the swell has dropped off.

Durban beachfront sunrise by Adam Kamdar reveals ok sardine conditions

The water temperature here on the southern Kwazulu Natal coast is a mildly warm 22 degrees Celsius. Which is up from the prime 19 degrees Celsius that sardines really like.

Todays Forecast

There are very many sardines out there. Stretched between Port Edward and Durban. If you set yourself up in Scottburgh or so – you are sure to bump in some sardine action. The further south you go, the more chance you will have because you are covering more ground. And more time.
