Semidiurnal: two high and two low tides a day, of similar height.
Heights above chart datum: the lowest astronomical tide (LAT), the zero of nautical charts in Europe. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. chart datum (LAT)

Where this tide comes from
Campwin Beach has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Hay Point (TICON-4), 7.4 mi away. On the open coast the difference is usually a few minutes and inches; inside estuaries, rivers and enclosed bays it can be much larger.

The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common0.2 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 0.9 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 0.9 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-shore wind. The coast faces northeast and the wind blows along the shore: drift and current run parallel to the beach.

Waves build over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Friday 30: 3.1 ft with a period of 4 s, from the east-southeast (slight).

Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 12:20 pm to 1:50 pm, combines slack water at high tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 5:40 am to 7:10 am, with slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind and weak current.
Slack water comes from the tide: in inlets, channels and between islands the water can keep running for an hour or two after. Ask the local dive shop.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,469 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:01–3:01 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:33–3:33 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 6:58–7:58 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 9:10–10:10 pm Minor · moonrise · medium activity
According to solunar theory, fish feed more when the moon passes overhead or underfoot (major periods, about 2 h) and when it rises or sets (minor periods, 1 h). It works best around new and full moon.

For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.35 mi): cast far from the beach and fish the high tide, when there is more water close in.
- Swimming. A very gentle way in with plenty of shallow water, good for kids. At low tide the water can be far out.
- Diving. Shallow near shore: you only reach 33 ft at 0.9 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, go by boat.
Rough estimate: here the data comes in cells of about 0.3 mi and misses details near shore (rocks, sandbars, small coves).
