Jump Tides and Conditions 29 July 2024 at 8AM
Jump Tides and Conditions 29 July 2024 at 8AM: the jump tides have just started. Today the tides move an hour. And tomorrow two hours! Wednesday jumps another two hours and by Thursday’s added hour, we are back into low-tide mornings! Just like that.
Over to Adam…on the Durban Golden Mile, in Golden Hour!
Jump Tides
Every time we move into neap tides, the tides start to act weird. During spring tides, the tides hardly move at all. 15 or 20 minutes. And consistently stay slow like this right through the springs.
Then all of a sudden, the tides move a lot! Like and hour yesterday. Again an hour today. And tomorrow (Tuesday) the tides jump a full two hours. And then again the next day. On Thursday they start to retreating back to normal with one hour. This will steadily drop as we move into springs.
The main good thing about the jump tides however, is that they bring about low tide mornings again. Favoured tide conditions for surfers, fishermen and divers.
Choose your tides carefully.
