Best tide state to fish Eighty Mile Beach
Eighty Mile sits in the tropical North Coast Bioregion with a wet-and-dry climate cycle. The dry season (roughly April through October) is the main fishing window, with stable SE trade winds, clear water and settled conditions. The wet (November to March) brings cyclones, big seas, road closures and unfishable beaches; the caravan park itself closes parts of its operation. Tides are semi-diurnal and big — up to 9m on springs — and the beach uncovers a vast intertidal flat at low water. Always check the tide chart, not the clock, before walking far.
What anglers target here
Anglers fishing Eighty Mile Beach typically time sessions around the tide for king threadfin salmon, longtail tuna, mulloway (jewfish), queenfish, and giant trevally.
