Today's high and low tides

  • ▼ Low tide 6:53 am -0.1 ft
  • ▼ Low tide 7:52 pm 0.2 ft

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 3 h 54 min to high tide at 1:01 pm.

Tide coefficient 86 for the 12:27 am high tide and 83 for the 1:01 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 3.6 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 October 28 (3.6 ft) and the lowest, on December 25 (-0.7 ft).

Semidiurnal: two high and two low tides a day, of similar height.

Heights above mean lower low water (MLLW), the zero of US nautical charts. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. MLLW

Tide coefficient and range in October

The biggest tides of the month came from October 26 to 28 (coefficient 89, 3.7 ft range). The smallest, from October 18 to 19 (coefficient 42, 1.6 ft).

Where this tide comes from

B · Nearby station

Dunmore Town has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Eleuthera Island (NOAA), 26 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. It is a NOAA subordinate station: its times and heights come from the Settlement Point reference station with the official corrections.

Today’s surf at a glance

The best window, 7:00 am to 11:00 am, has a good size and glassy water, though with a short-period swell. 2:00 pm to 6:00 pm can also work, with a good size and glassy water, 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, 12:10 pm to 2:10 pm, combines slack water at high tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high, though with some swell. Also worth a look from 6:50 am to 8:00 am, with slack water at low tide, light wind and weak current, 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.

Never dive alone and check with the local dive shop: this rating is a guide, not a substitute for a professional.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 2:46–4:46 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity

  • 10:32–11:32 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 9:04–10:04 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 1.7 mi out for 33 ft of water. It reaches 164 ft at 1.9 mi.

From the shoreline (0.35 mi from Dunmore Town) out to sea, heading northeast.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep1.6 mi
  • 33 ft deep1.7 mi
  • 66 ft deep1.7 mi
  • 164 ft deep1.9 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 1.6 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 1.7 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). Where the bottom comes up to the surface there are shoals, rocks or an islet next to the profile.
