↑ Rising The tide is rising. 6 h 42 min to high tide at 11:44 pm.
Tide coefficient 112 for the 11:44 pm high tide. Big spring tides. The water rises and falls 2.5 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 (3.8 ft) and the lowest, on January 3 (0.0 ft).
Mixed, mainly diurnal: on many days there is only one high and one low tide.
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
Greenough has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Geraldton (TICON-4), 14 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 sea at Greenough
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common2.0 ft
- Significant4.0 ft
- Highest expectedHighest7.9 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 7.9 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 7.9 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Onshore wind. The coast faces southwest and the wind blows straight in from the sea: more surf and backwash at the shore, and bait and boats drift toward land.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves build over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Wednesday 4: 8.8 ft with a period of 11 s, from the south-southwest (rough).
Water temperature
Water temperature →Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water warms over the next few days: about 69.4 °F by Wednesday 4.
Water about normal for late October.

Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 6:00 am to 10:00 am, has a good size and glassy water.
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, 6:50 am to 9:50 am, combines slack water at low tide, light wind and weak current, though with some swell. Also worth a look from 1:00 pm to 2:30 pm, with light wind, weak current and the sun high, though with some swell.
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 226,493 mi away and looks 32′ 46″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:26–3:26 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:58–3:58 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 7:02–8:02 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 9:56–10:56 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 1.2 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 2.2 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).
Source: NOAA ETOPO 2022 (CC0), cells of about 0.3 mi; depth below mean sea level. For reference only: not for navigation or anchoring.
