Your day at a glance

The best window, 2:20 am to 4:20 am, combines the 3:23 am low tide, a major period and some swell. Also worth a try from 9:10 pm to 10:10 pm, with the 10:11 pm high tide, moonrise and some swell, though with rising pressure. Also worth a try from 3:40 pm to 5:40 pm, with the 4:40 pm low tide, sunset, a light onshore breeze and some swell, though with rising pressure.

Today's high and low tides

  • ▼ Low tide 4:40 pm 1.4 ft
  • ▲ High tide 10:11 pm 4.3 ft · coef. 80

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 22 min to high tide at 10:09 am.

Tide coefficient 85 for the 10:09 am high tide and 80 for the 10:11 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 6.0 ft between the highest high and the lowest low: a large range for this place. 70 is an average tide here; 90 and above means spring tides; below 45, neap tides. What is the tide coefficient?

2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on June 15 (7.4 ft) and the lowest, on November 25 (0.2 ft).

Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.

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)

Tide coefficient and range in October

The biggest tides of the month came from October 26 to 27 (coefficient 98, 6.2 ft range). The smallest, from October 18 to 19 (coefficient 33, 2.8 ft).

Where this tide comes from

B · Nearby station

Pelican Waters has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Mooloolaba (TICON-4), 10 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.

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Pelican Waters

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: slight

Slight Douglas 3 · moderate breeze, Beaufort 4
Waves 1.8 ft · 6.4 s from the east (101°)
Swell 1.2 ft · 7.3 s from the east-northeast
Current 0.2 mph toward the SE

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.9 ft
  • Significant1.8 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest3.8 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 3.8 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 3.8 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 7 mph SSE · gusts 19
Offshore (11 mi ENE)Offshore 13 mph S · gusts 19

Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces east and the wind comes in from the sea at an angle: a bit more surf at the shore and drift along the coast, toward land.

Today’s surf at a glance

The best window, 5:00 am to 9:00 am, has light offshore wind, though with small waves and a short-period swell. 12:00 pm to 4:00 pm can also work, though with a short-period swell.

An estimate for this stretch of coast, not for a specific break: every beach or reef works its own way (its tide, bottom and angle). Check it when you get there.

Follow the flags and the lifeguards, and don’t paddle out if the surf is above your level: this score is a guide, not a substitute for what you see when you get there.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 9:20 am to 11:00 am, combines slack water at high tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 3:50 pm to 5:40 pm, 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.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 12:46–2:46 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity

  • 6:28–7:28 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 9:09–10:09 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.

Water depth

Shallow, gradual

Shallow, gradual bottom: you need to go 1.6 mi out for 33 ft of water.

From the shoreline (1.2 mi from Pelican Waters) out to sea, heading northeast.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep1.4 mi
  • 33 ft deep1.6 mi
  • 66 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 1.4 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 1.6 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). The profile is turned slightly from the coast so it does not run into an island or a headland. Where the bottom comes up to the surface there are shoals, rocks or an islet next to the profile.
