April 1, 2026

Good morning and welcome to April! Our photo of the day comes from Angela Smith in Sandy Bay! We are bright and sunny today with sargassum on the south side. I haven’t found a good sargassum monitoring page. If you know of one please send it to me. We will be sunny and dry today with a better chance of rain tomorrow especially in the morning.

At 7:30 a.m. we have some popcorn clouds to our northeast, but most of us have clear skies overhead. Today will be mostly sunny with east winds around 15 mph and seas 3 feet. We will keep those winds and seas the rest of the week, but we will have a better chance of showers tonight into tomorrow morning and we can’t even rule out an afternoon shower tomorrow. After that we should get drier again. We are fortunate to have had these late season rains, because April is typically the month for fires and smoke from the mainland, so let’s hope we keep showers around.

Many thanks to the Jolly Roger Roatan for sponsoring our photo contest. We will be putting up the March vote soon, but we will also be taking a break from the contest. Please continue sending us your photos and we will feature them daily, but we won’t have a monthly contest for awhile. Jolly Roger Roatan will continue offering the best excursions with guaranteed fun!


Low tide will be 2:20 p.m. and we will be getting to full moon tomorrow, the most important day of the year! Have a great Wednesday!
