Today and tomorrow

For the Whanganui river entrance, the solunar windows and tides line up well across Saturday 24 October 2026 and Sunday 25 October 2026. On Saturday, the major windows occur between 22:34 and 00:34, and 10:11 and 12:11. The latter major window is particularly productive as it aligns closely with the moon underfoot. Sunday features a major window from 10:58 to 12:58. These times are for waters around the Whanganui river entrance, where anglers often target the channel and the immediate harbour area. The biggest tide of the two days is the high tide of 2.7 metres on Sunday evening. Throughout this period, the moon is in a waxing gibbous phase. While no major windows overlap directly with sunrise or sunset, the tidal movement remains significant for those fishing the river mouth, with the ebb and flow providing consistent activity for local species navigating the transition between the river and the open sea.
