Where this tide comes from
Lancelin has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global FES2022 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 2.3 mi away). It may differ from the real tide by a few minutes and inches, and more with wind or storms. Heights are above mean sea level, not chart datum, so low tides are negative. Not for navigation.
Model attribution: FES2022 Tide was produced by LEGOS, NOVELTIS and CLS, funded by CNES, and distributed by AVISO (https://doi.org/10.24400/527896/a01-2024.004), AVISO licence (https://www.aviso.altimetry.fr/fileadmin/documents/data/License_Aviso.pdf). Modified by TidePlanet: constants interpolated from the nearest model cells offshore; heights above mean sea level.
The sea at Lancelin
Sea stateSea state: moderate
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common2.2 ft
- Significant4.5 ft
- Highest expectedHighest8.8 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 8.8 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 8.8 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: 9.9 ft with a period of 12 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 69.0 °F by Wednesday 4.
Water about normal for late October.

Surf in Lancelin today
Surf today
Very good- 3.3–5.1 ft surf at the shore, a good size with some punch
- 3.7 ft swell at 11 s from the southwest, average
- Almost no wind (1 mph): glassy water
- Falling tide (low tide at 8:29 am)
- Light: First light 5:00 am · sunrise 5:26 am · sunset 6:40 pm · last light 7:05 pm
- Tide: low 8:29 am (-1.1 ft) and high 10:44 pm (1.3 ft). Every break has its own tide: some work at low tide and others at high tide. The tide doesn’t change the score here.
- Water at 66.7 °F–68.4 °F: a springsuit or a 2 mm fullsuit.
- Energy: 314 kJ · Medium power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 5:00 am to 9:00 am, has a good size and glassy water. 12:00 pm to 2:00 pm also works, with a good size.
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.

- Likely visibility: fair. Swell (up to 3.9 ft at 11 s) over the last few days has stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 66.7–68.4 °F: a 5 mm wetsuit.
- Snorkeling: better not, with these waves, wind or current.
- Night dive: dark from 7:05 pm. Waning gibbous (88%), rising at 10:30 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 7:30 am to 10:10 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 tidal current and 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.
Never dive alone and check with the local dive shop: this rating is a guide, not a substitute for a professional.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,493 mi away and looks 32′ 46″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:23–3:23 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:56–3:56 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 6:53–7:53 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 10:00–11:00 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 1,200 ft): 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. 33 ft deep 0.35 mi from shore; 66 ft is far out (1.5 mi): for deeper dives, 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.
