Good morning, Durban. It’s just after 7 am on Saturday, the 6th of July 2024. We experienced a spring high tide at 4 am, and the next spring low tide will be at 10 am. The forecast from Windguru indicates fresh offshore winds throughout the day, high swells, with temperatures around 21 degrees Celsius. How has Windguru been performing for you?

Do you find it accurate? Please leave your feedback in the comments below. This is the tides update for fishing. The wind is blowing at 13 kilometers per hour from the west, with a chilly temperature of 12 degrees Celsius in Durban this morning. Wave net indicates the water temperature is still dropping, yet remains too warm for sardines at around 22 degrees Celsius.

We need it to drop to 19 degrees Celsius. The atmospheric pressure in Durban is 1020 hPa and rising. The most recent sardine sightings were near Warner Beach, but only birds were spotted, with little to no sign of shoals. Thus, the trail has gone cold for the sardines due to Durban’s warm waters.

Next, we’ll present the sunrise view.

This is today’s sunrise. As visible by the flags, there’s a light offshore wind smoothing the sea near the shore. However, the sea conditions are rough with high swells offshore. Consequently, many boats have altered their deep-sea fishing plans, opting to fish closer to shore, backline, near the stadium, Virginia, targeting snoek, among others.

Here, one of the boats is seen fishing, and numerous canoes are out for morning exercise. The conditions are beautifully calm at Point Beach, Ushaka area.

And this view is towards Blue Lagoon.

Have a spectacular day and stay updated with thesardine.co.za.

“Thank you Adam!”
