Semidiurnal: two high and two low tides a day, of similar height.
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

Where this tide comes from
Tides from the Saint John station (TICON-4), 2.8 mi from Saint John East. Times and heights are its predictions.

The sea at Saint John East
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common0.9 ft
- Significant1.8 ft
- Highest expectedHighest3.8 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 3.8 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 3.8 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Onshore wind. The coast faces south and the wind blows straight in from the sea: more surf and backwash at the shore, and bait and boats drift toward land.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves build over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Wednesday 4: 6.0 ft with a period of 6 s, from the south-southwest (moderate).
Water temperature
Water temperature →The satellite measured 4.0 °F more 2 days ago 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 is steady these days, with no sudden changes.
Water colder than normal for late October (−1.3 °F).

- 1.0 ft swell at 5 s from the south, short: weak, messy waves

- Tide: high 2:17 am (25.4 ft), low 8:29 am (3.4 ft), high 2:35 pm (26.7 ft) and low 9:01 pm (2.3 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.

- Energy: 28 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 3:00 pm to 6:46 pm, has a good size, though with a short-period swell, wind swell and onshore wind.
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.

Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 8:00 am to 9:30 am, combines slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind and weak current. Also worth a look from 2:10 pm to 3:10 pm, with slack water at high tide, weak current and the sun high, 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.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,718 mi away and looks 32′ 44″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 3:01–5:01 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 3:34–5:34 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 12:01–1:01 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 8:07–9:07 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. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 2.2 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: the water doesn't reach 33 ft within 3.1 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). The profile is turned slightly from the coast so it does not run into an island or a headland.
