Tides in Grande-Digue
Today's high and low tides
- ▼ Low tide 5:59 am 0.5 ft
- ▲ High tide 2:51 pm 4.1 ft · coef. 104
- ▼ Low tide 5:19 pm 3.9 ft
- ▲ Next high tide 7:27 pm 4.0 ft · coef. 106
↑ Rising The tide is rising. 33 min to high tide at 7:27 pm.
Tide coefficient 104 for the 2:51 pm high tide and 106 for the 7:27 pm high tide. Big spring tides. The water rises and falls 3.6 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 (4.9 ft) and the lowest, on June 16 (-0.2 ft).
Mixed, mainly diurnal: on many days there is only one high and one low tide.
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 come from October 29 to 30 (coefficient 113, 3.9 ft range). The smallest, on October 23 (coefficient 20, 0.7 ft).

The sea at Grande-Digue
Sea stateSea state: smooth
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common0.6 ft
- Significant1.1 ft
- Highest expectedHighest2.4 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 2.4 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 2.4 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces east 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 Saturday 31: 3.1 ft with a period of 4 s, from the north-northwest (slight).
Water temperature
Water temperature →The satellite measured 2.7 °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 cools over the next few days: about 46.3 °F by Tuesday 3.
Water colder than normal for late October (−2.4 °F).

Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 4:10 pm to 6:10 pm, combines slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind and weak current. Also good from 1:40 pm to 3:10 pm, with slack water at high tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high.
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 Grande-Digue
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,432 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: high- 1:51–3:51 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:23–4:23 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 10:47–11:47 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 6:54–7:54 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.
