Where this tide comes from

M · Global model

Île-de-Lamèque has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global FES2022 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 3.7 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.

Model attribution: FES2022 Tide was produced by LEGOS, NOVELTIS and CLS, funded by CNES, and distributed by AVISO (https://doi.org/10.24400/527896/a01-2024.004), AVISO licence (https://www.aviso.altimetry.fr/fileadmin/documents/data/License_Aviso.pdf). Modified by TidePlanet: constants interpolated from the nearest model cells offshore; heights above mean sea level.

Sea and waves

The sea at Île-de-Lamèque

Smooth Douglas 2 · moderate breeze, Beaufort 4
Waves 1.6 ft · 3.2 s from the west (272°)

The waves you may find

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 3.3 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 3.3 ft.

Offshore (8.0 mi SE)Offshore 13 mph WSW · gusts 19

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 12:30 pm, combines slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also worth a look from 5:00 pm to 6:10 pm, with slack water at high tide, little swell and weak current, though with moderate wind.

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
  • 2:55–4:55 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity

  • 12:09–1:09 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:47–8:47 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

Very shallow

Very shallow and flat: even 2.4 mi from shore the water is less than 16 ft deep.

From the shoreline (1.9 mi from Île-de-Lamèque) out to sea, heading east.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deepnot within 2.4 mi
  • 33 ft deepnot within 2.4 mi
  • 66 ft deepnot within 2.4 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 2.4 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Very shallow: the water doesn't reach 16 ft within 2.4 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 2.4 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). There is land ahead (an island, a headland or the far shore) 2.4 mi out. The profile is turned slightly from the coast so it does not run into an island or a headland. Where the bottom comes up to the surface there are shoals, rocks or an islet next to the profile.
