Tide coefficient 100 for the 7:21 am high tide and 97 for the 6:48 pm high tide. Big spring tides. The water rises and falls 4.8 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 25 (3.2 ft) and the lowest, on May 18 (-2.4 ft).

Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.

Heights above mean sea level. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. mean sea level

Tide coefficient and range in October

Where this tide comes from

M · Global model

Baie du Petit-Pokemouche has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global EOT20 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 5.7 mi away). It may differ from the real tide by a few minutes and inches, and more with wind or storms. Heights are above mean sea level, not chart datum, so low tides are negative. Not for navigation.

Sea and waves

The sea at Baie du Petit-Pokemouche

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · moderate breeze, Beaufort 4
Waves 1.1 ft · 2.9 s from the west-southwest (237°)
Swell 0.6 ft · 2.8 s from the south-southwest
Current 0.2 mph toward the NE

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.6 ft
  • Significant1.1 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest2.3 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 2.3 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 2.3 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 9 mph WSW · gusts 15
Offshore (14 mi S)Offshore 14 mph WSW · gusts 20

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

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 10:00 am to 1:00 pm, combines slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 8:00 am to 8:50 am, with slack water at high tide, little swell, light wind and weak 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.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 2:56–4:56 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity

  • 12:09–1:09 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:48–8:48 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 1.4 mi out for 33 ft of water.

From the shoreline (1.1 mi from Baie du Petit-Pokemouche) out to sea, heading southeast.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep0.5 mi
  • 33 ft deep1.4 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 0.5 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 1.4 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).
