↑ Rising The tide is rising. 5 h 14 min to high tide at 7:04 am.

Tide coefficient 89 for the 7:04 am high tide and 87 for the 7:45 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 5.9 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 August 14 (7.0 ft) and the lowest, on July 17 (0.3 ft).

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

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 10 to 12 (coefficient 96, 5.7 ft range). The smallest, on October 20 (coefficient 32, 2.5 ft).

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Sanābis

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · light air, Beaufort 1
Waves 0.4 ft · 2.5 s from the north-northeast (13°)
Swell 0.4 ft · 2.0 s from the north-northeast
Current 0.9 mph toward the ENE

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.2 ft
  • Significant0.4 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest0.9 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 0.9 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 0.9 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 3 mph SE · gusts 4
Offshore (3.5 mi WNW)Offshore 3 mph SE · gusts 8

Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces north and the wind comes off the land at an angle: calmer water near the shore, and bait and boats drift out to sea.

The best window, 5:21 am to 9:00 am, has light offshore wind, though with barely any waves.

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, 12:50 pm to 2:20 pm, combines slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind and the sun high, though with current. Also worth a look from 6:30 am to 7:40 am, with slack water at high tide, little swell and light wind, though with 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.

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
  • 12:54–2:54 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:26–3:26 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 8:42–9:42 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:10–8:10 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: 16 ft at 0.75 mi from shore and 31 ft at 3.1 mi.

From the shoreline (0.95 mi from Sanābis) out to sea, heading north.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep0.75 mi
  • 33 ft deepnot within 3.1 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 0.75 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: 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).
