↓ Falling The tide is falling. 6 h 38 min to low tide at 10:27 pm.
Tide coefficient 94 for the 3:30 am high tide and 92 for the 3:19 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 22.3 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 December 24 (24.7 ft) and the lowest, on June 16 (0.0 ft).
Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.
Heights above lower low water, large tide (LLWLT), the zero of Canadian 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. LLWLT
Tide coefficient and range in October
The biggest tides of the month came from October 26 to 28 (coefficient 96, 22.3 ft range). The smallest, from October 18 to 19 (coefficient 32, 9.2 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Tlell has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Queen Charlotte City (TICON-4), 22 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 Tlell
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.4 ft
- Significant2.9 ft
- Highest expectedHighest6.1 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 6.1 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 6.1 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces east and the wind comes in from the sea at an angle: a bit more surf at the shore and drift along the coast, toward land.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves build over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Sunday 1: 5.6 ft with a period of 5 s, from the southeast (moderate).
Water temperature
Water temperature →The satellite measured 3.2 °F more yesterday than the model gives now: the water is probably warmer than the forecast says.
Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water is steady these days, with no sudden changes.
Water colder than normal for late October (−1.0 °F).

Today’s surf at a glance
The best window is 8:03 am to 12:00 pm, though with a short-period swell, wind swell and onshore 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, 8:40 am to 10:50 am, combines slack water at low tide, light wind and weak current. Also worth a look from 2:40 pm to 4:00 pm, with slack water at high tide and the sun high, though with moderate wind 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.
Never dive alone and check with the local dive shop: this rating is a guide, not a substitute for a professional.

The moon in Tlell
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,426 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: high- 2:32–4:32 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 3:04–5:04 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 12:19–1:19 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 6:46–7:46 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.

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: 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).
Source: NOAA ETOPO 2022 (CC0), cells of about 0.3 mi; depth below mean sea level. For reference only: not for navigation or anchoring.
