Today at Fenwick Island State Park, we’re looking at a pleasant range from a low of 55°F in the early morning fog to a high of 68°F during the sunny afternoon hours. Winds start at a calm 0 mph Variable during the foggy dawn and remain gentle throughout the day, averaging just 4 mph overall.
Paddling Window: 7AM-7PM
The morning kicks off shrouded in fog with 100% humidity and 0 mph winds at 7am and 8am—visibility will be limited, so early birds should exercise caution or simply wait it out. By 9am, the fog becomes patchy as a light 5 mph north wind arrives and temperatures climb to 58°F. From 10am onward, conditions transform beautifully: mostly sunny skies take over, and temps steadily rise from 62°F at 10am to peak at 68°F by 4pm. Your best paddling window is clearly between 10am and 6pm when visibility is excellent and conditions are comfortable.
