- ▼ Low tide 8:33 am 0.0 ft
- ▲ High tide 2:32 pm 20.2 ft · coef. 78
- ▼ Low tide 9:06 pm -1.0 ft
↑ Rising The tide is rising. 58 min to high tide at 2:15 am.
Tide coefficient 81 for the 2:15 am high tide and 78 for the 2:32 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 21.2 ft between the highest high and the lowest low: an average 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 April 19 (21.5 ft) and the lowest, on April 19 (-2.6 ft).
Semidiurnal: two high and two low tides a day, of similar height.
Heights above mean lower low water (MLLW), the zero of US nautical 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. MLLW
Tide coefficient and range in October
The biggest tides of the month came from October 26 to 28 (coefficient 84, 22.2 ft range). The smallest, from October 18 to 20 (coefficient 56, 13.9 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Fundy Bay has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Eastport Maine (TICON-4), 15 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 Fundy Bay
Sea stateSea state: smooth
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common0.7 ft
- Significant1.4 ft
- Highest expectedHighest3.0 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 3.0 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 3.0 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.
Offshore wind. The coast faces east and the wind blows from land out to sea: calm shore and clean waves, but watch the drift out to sea.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves build over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Wednesday 4: 5.1 ft with a period of 5 s, from the south-southwest (moderate).
Water temperature

- Light: First light 7:31 am · sunrise 8:01 am · sunset 6:20 pm · last light 6:50 pm
- Tide: high 2:15 am (18.9 ft), low 8:33 am (0.0 ft), high 2:32 pm (20.2 ft) and low 9:06 pm (-1.0 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.

Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 8:00 am to 12:00 pm, 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.
Diving in Fundy Bay today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: good- Slack water around high tide (2:32 pm): little current from 2:10 pm to 2:50 pm

- Moderate offshore wind (17 mph): it pushes surface swimmers away from shore
- 0.4 mph current toward the southwest, weak (model)
- Sun high: more light underwater
- Slack water today: high tide 2:15 am (1:50–2:40 am), low tide 8:33 am (8:10–8:50 am), high tide 2:32 pm (2:10–2:50 pm) and low tide 9:06 pm (8:40–9:30 pm)
- Likely visibility: good. The sea has been calm and there's been little rain. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 51.1 °F: a 7 mm semi-dry suit, with hood, gloves and booties.
- Snorkeling: doable, with some waves or wind.
- Night dive: dark from 6:50 pm. Waning gibbous (84%), rising at 8:43 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 1:50 pm to 3:10 pm, combines slack water at high tide, weak current and the sun high, though with moderate wind. Also worth a look from 7:50 am to 9:10 am, with slack water at low 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.

The moon in Fundy Bay
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,718 mi away and looks 32′ 44″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 3:04–5:04 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 3:37–5:37 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 12:01–1:01 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 8:13–9:13 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.

- 66 ft deep1.9 mi
- 164 ft deep2.6 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 1,250 ft): 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. 33 ft deep 0.4 mi from shore; 66 ft is far out (1.9 mi): for deeper dives, 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).
