Today at Little Assawoman Bay, we’re looking at temperatures ranging from a cool 65°F at dawn to a pleasant high of 76°F by mid-afternoon. The morning starts with gentle 5 mph winds out of the south and 100% humidity—basically, you’ll feel like you’re paddling through a warm, damp blanket.

Paddling Window: 7AM to 7PM

Here’s the honest breakdown: the early morning hours from 7am to 10am come with rain shower chances and near-total humidity. Temperatures climb steadily from 65°F at 7am through 69°F by 10am, but you’ll likely encounter some wet weather. The magic window opens around 11am when conditions shift to mostly cloudy, and by noon you’re looking at partly sunny skies with temps hitting 74°F. Wind picks up from that gentle 5 mph start to a steady 10 mph by 8am, then jumps to 15 mph by noon and holds there through the evening. Your sweet spot? 11am to 4pm offers the driest conditions with mostly sunny skies and peak temperatures of 76°F.

Through the Day on Little Assawoman Bay

Early birds paddling between 7am and 9am will contend with rain showers and thick humidity hovering around 97%. By late morning, things improve dramatically—11am brings mostly cloudy skies and 72°F. The afternoon from noon to 4pm delivers the best paddling with partly to mostly sunny conditions, though that 15 mph southwest wind will create some chop on the bay. Late afternoon around 5pm sees rain chances return, and by 6pm and 7pm you’re back in shower territory with 15 mph south winds persisting.

That consistent 15 mph breeze through the afternoon means beginners might find themselves fighting the conditions on Little Assawoman Bay.
