↑ Rising The tide is rising. 4 h 51 min to high tide at 6:31 am.
Tide coefficient 95 for the 6:31 am high tide and 91 for the 6:40 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 8.9 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 December 25 (10.2 ft) and the lowest, on April 19 (0.2 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 27 to 28 (coefficient 100, 9.0 ft range). The smallest, from October 19 to 20 (coefficient 33, 3.6 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Dalhousie Junction has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Dalhousie (TICON-4), 5.7 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.

Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces northwest 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.

Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 3:03–5:03 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 3:36–5:36 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 12:18–1:18 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 7:53–8:53 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 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 mi. For deeper dives, take a boat farther out.
Inside bays, estuaries and harbors the bottom changes a lot from spot to spot (channels and shoals): use this only as a rough guide. There is land ahead (an island, a headland or the far shore) 3 mi out.
