The tide read
Morning high of 2.4m holds through 7–8AM, then the tide drains all day to a 0.5m low at 3PM before a slow push back to 1.0m by dark. Best window: dawn to mid-morning on the fuller tide — the reef gets very shallow through the afternoon. Tidal swings keep building toward the new moon on the 14th, so expect bigger highs and skinnier lows each day this week. Source: Indonesian Tide Tables 2026.
