Small Craft & High Surf Advisory - 6th March 2026 (12 Noon)

SMALL CRAFT AND HIGH SURF ADVISORY IS IN EFFECT

FOR ST VINCENT AND THE GRENADINES

Issued at 12:00 Noon, Friday 6th March, 2026

 

The Small-craft and High Surf Advisory remains in for St Vincent and the Grenadines and its coastal waters until further notice.

A Small-Craft Advisory is issued when sustained winds of 37 to 46 km/h (23 to 29 mph) and/or sea swells of 2.5 to 3.0 meters (8 to 10 feet) are affecting or forecast to affect the marine area within the next 36 hours.

A High Surf Advisory is issued when breaking wave action is forecast to pose a threat to life and property within the surf zone during the next 36 hours.

Large waves and dangerous rip-currents are creating unsafe conditions for small-craft operators, particularly on the northern and eastern coastlines. These conditions may become even more adverse at times of high tide. Therefore, only vessels capable of withstanding swells of these magnitudes should venture out. Sea-bathers are advised to stay out of the water.

Upcoming High-tide times:

Friday (Today) 09:00 pm

Tuesday 10:13 and 09:37 pm

Sunday 11:05 am and 10:14 pm

Monday 11:46 am and 10:50 pm

This advisory will be updated as necessary.
