Today's high and low tides

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 5 h 4 min to high tide at 10:59 pm.
Tide coefficient 88 for the 10:41 am high tide and 86 for the 10:59 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 3.9 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 (3.7 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, 3.9 ft range). The smallest, from October 18 to 19 (coefficient 43, 1.7 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Tides from the Clarence Harbor station (NOAA), 0.0 mi from Clarence Town. Times and heights are its predictions. It is a NOAA subordinate station: its times and heights come from the Settlement Point reference station with the official corrections.

The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common0.9 ft
- Significant1.7 ft
- Highest expectedHighest3.5 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 3.5 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 3.5 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.
Offshore wind. The coast faces north and the wind blows from land out to sea: calm shore and clean waves, but watch the drift out to sea.

Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Sunday 1: 2.8 ft with a period of 5 s, from the east-northeast (slight).

Surf in Clarence Town today
Surf today
Poor- 1.1–1.7 ft surf at the shore, small: good for learning or a longboard
- 1.1 ft swell at 8 s from the northeast, a bit short
- Light offshore wind (5 mph): it holds up and grooms the waves
- Rising tide (high tide at 10:41 am)
- Light: First light 6:40 am · sunrise 7:03 am · sunset 6:24 pm · last light 6:47 pm
- Tide: low 4:21 am (-0.2 ft), high 10:41 am (3.7 ft), low 5:16 pm (0.1 ft) and high 10:59 pm (2.8 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 84.7 °F: boardshorts or a swimsuit and a rash guard.
- Energy: 16 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 7:00 am to 11:00 am, has light offshore wind. 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm can also work, with light offshore wind, though with small waves and 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.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,429 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:35–3:35 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:06–4:06 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 9:11–10:11 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 8:00–9:00 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. Very shallow: the water doesn't reach 16 ft within 3.1 mi. Cast far from the beach, ideally around high tide.
- 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: the water doesn't reach 33 ft within 3.1 mi. For deeper dives, take a boat farther out.
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.
