Currents in Cancun

[Zeke XA3]

Hi folks, ive been looking in vain for something...

Back home in the UK i can get a tide table with currents very easily but i am having trouble locating one for Cancun and its approachs.

I am looking for one to check out the flow up the coast. Normally we only have an ocean curent running from South to North with no influence due to tides.

However some days the currents stops or reverse and im trying to find out why, or if maybe this is dependent on tides???

Are you searching on the right phrase.
Try searching for "Yucatan Channel" and you'll find quite a lot.

Example:
Upper-layer circulation in the approaches to Yucatan channel

Then mix in the spanish for current = corriente.

If you read Spanish, try this one.

But it doesn't look like tables are going to work with any degree of reliability.

Poco espanol!
