Where this tide comes from
Salineiro has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Praia (TICON-4), 7.0 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 Salineiro
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.6 ft
- Significant3.2 ft
- Highest expectedHighest6.4 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 6.4 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 6.4 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces south and the wind comes off the land at an angle: calmer water near the shore, and bait and boats drift out to sea.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Wednesday 28: 3.3 ft with a period of 11 s, from the south-southwest (slight).
Water temperature

Surf in Salineiro today
Surf today
Good- 2.2–3.4 ft surf at the shore, a fun size for most surfers
- 2.6 ft swell at 9 s from the south, a bit short
- Light offshore wind (7 mph): it holds up and grooms the waves
- Falling tide (low tide at 3:49 pm)
- Light: First light 6:07 am · sunrise 6:29 am · sunset 6:07 pm · last light 6:29 pm
- Tide: low 3:38 am (0.4 ft), high 9:49 am (4.0 ft), low 3:49 pm (0.4 ft) and high 10:08 pm (4.3 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 83.3 °F: boardshorts or a swimsuit and a rash guard.
- Energy: 95 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 10:00 am to 2:00 pm, has a good size and light offshore wind.
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, 9:00 am to 10:50 am, combines slack water at high tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high, though with some swell. Also worth a look from 3:00 pm to 4:20 pm, with slack water at low tide and light wind, though with some swell and 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.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,444 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:00–3:00 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:32–3:32 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 8:16–9:16 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 7:46–8:46 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.
