Plan the best tide & moon windows
- •Low tides open wide sand at Stinson, Bolinas, and Richardson Bay — pair with sunrise for photos.
- •High tides can cover beach access paths; check times before hauling kayaks or paddleboards.
- •Negative low tides expose tide pools near Duxbury Reef and Agate Beach — go at slack low, not mid-change.
- •Golden Gate reference tides apply across central Marin; west Marin lagoons can lag 15–30 minutes.
- •Share today's tide card with friends planning the same beach walk or oyster run.
- •Bright moon nights: arrive 20–30 minutes before moonrise for golden-hour sky color.
- •Full-ish phases wash out Milky Way views but are perfect for bay reflections and silhouettes.
