Very high
Very high exposure — unprotected skin burns quickly. Cover up, reapply sunscreen often and keep out of the midday sun.
- 1–2 · Low
- Little risk — most people need no sun protection.
- 3–7 · Moderate to high
- Wear a hat, sunglasses and SPF 30+, and take shade around midday.
- 8+ · Very high to extreme
- Use SPF 50+, cover up and stay out of the sun through the middle of the day.
The sea surface holds around 32.3° today, moving between 32.1° and 32.5°. Water temperature sets the pace of fish metabolism, so even a small shift can change where fish hold and how actively they feed.

A larger coefficient means a wider gap between high and low water, so the strongest currents run along the sea bed. Tidal range also shifts with the weather — check the wind and swell before you head out.

Best fishing times today
Solunar theory rates today a slow day for fishing at Playa del Caimito — plan around the major and minor periods below.

Moon overhead (lunar transit)
Overlaps sunrise or sunset12:51 – 13:51
Moonset
17:49 – 19:49
Moon underfoot (opposing transit)
Overlaps sunrise or sunsetMajor periods track the moon's transit and opposing transit and run about two hours; minor periods open at moonrise and moonset and last about an hour. When a period lands on sunrise or sunset, activity climbs higher still — and that overlap happens today.

Frequently asked questions
Tides, coefficients and fishing times for Playa del Caimito, explained.
What time is high tide in Playa del Caimito today?
High water at Playa del Caimito today is at 04:50 and 15:40. The full list of high and low tide times is in the table above and refreshes every day.
Is today a good day to fish in Playa del Caimito?
Based on solunar theory the fishing rating today is Slow. The strongest windows are the major periods around the lunar transit, which often line up with sunrise and sunset.
What is the tidal coefficient and why does it matter?
The coefficient runs from 0 to 120 and measures the tidal range — today it is 40 (Low). Higher numbers mean stronger currents and a bigger gap between high and low water, which matters for fishing, diving and boating.
When are sunrise and sunset in Playa del Caimito today?
The sun rises at 07:10 and sets at 19:42 local time, giving 12h 32m of daylight.
What is the water temperature in Playa del Caimito today?
The sea surface at Playa del Caimito is around 32.4°C right now. Water temperature sets the pace of fish metabolism, so the hourly strip above is worth a glance — even a small shift can change where fish hold and how actively they feed.
How big are the waves in Playa del Caimito today?
The significant wave height at Playa del Caimito is currently 0.0 m with a period of 3.6 s between crests. Individual sets can stack up to roughly twice that height, so allow a margin at exposed marks and anchorages.
