Frequently asked questions
Where do the tides come from?
From the harmonic constants of tide stations (NOAA, TICON-4 and other hydrographic services) and, where no station is nearby, from the global FES2022 and EOT20 models, only on coasts where we have checked them. Each place says which one it uses.
Can I use it for navigation?
No. These are predictions for fishing and leisure. For navigation, use the official publications of your hydrographic service.
Is it free?
Yes, with no sign-up, including the full-year tide table.
Where are my favorite places stored?
Only in your browser, with no account: your favorites, recent places and chosen units are stored on your device, not on our server. You can see them all, with today's data for each, in “My places”.
What's the tide doing at your beach today?
