Best tide state to fish Tantabiddi (Boat Ramp / Lagoon Gap / Outer Reef Drop-off)

Western-side conditions are reef-shaped — the lagoon stays fishable in moderate easterlies and most southerlies because the reef breaks the swell, while the gap and outer water need a settled morning to be comfortable. Tidal range is around 2m and the run through the gap is strong on the change. The Leeuwin and Ningaloo currents both feature on the shelf line. Cyclone season runs November to April and a system in the Indian Ocean can shut Tantabiddi down for a week.
