Today's high and low tides

  • ▲ High tide 2:17 am 25.4 ft · coef. 81
  • ▼ Low tide 8:29 am 3.4 ft
  • ▼ Low tide 9:01 pm 2.3 ft

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 4 h 33 min to high tide at 2:35 pm.

Tide coefficient 81 for the 2:17 am high tide and 79 for the 2:35 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 24.4 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 May 18 (28.0 ft) and the lowest, on April 19 (0.8 ft).

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

Tide coefficient and range in October

The biggest tides of the month came from October 26 to 28 (coefficient 84, 25.6 ft range). The smallest, from October 18 to 19 (coefficient 48, 14.9 ft).

Where this tide comes from

B · Nearby station

St. Martins has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Saint John (TICON-4), 25 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.

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at St. Martins

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: slight

Slight Douglas 3 · moderate breeze, Beaufort 4
Waves 2.4 ft · 3.9 s from the southwest (223°)
Swell 1.0 ft · 4.2 s from the south-southwest
Current 2.2 mph toward the NE

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common1.2 ft
  • Significant2.4 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest5.1 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 5.1 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 5.1 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 8 mph W · gusts 25
Offshore (7.3 mi SSE)Offshore 17 mph WSW · gusts 23

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.

Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Friday 30: 5.0 ft with a period of 5 s, from the southwest (moderate).

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 about normal for late October.

Today’s surf at a glance

The best window, 7:27 am to 11:00 am, has light offshore wind, though with small waves, a short-period swell and wind swell.

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, 1:30 pm to 2:30 pm, combines slack water at high tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 7:50 am to 8:30 am, with slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind and weak 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.

  • 2:59–4:59 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity

  • 11:59 am–12:59 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 8:05–9:05 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

Shallow, gradual

Shallow, gradual bottom: you need to go 1.1 mi out for 33 ft of water.

From the shoreline (1.1 mi from St. Martins) out to sea, heading southeast.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep0.9 mi
  • 33 ft deep1.1 mi
  • 66 ft deep1.5 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.9 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 near shore: you only reach 33 ft at 1.1 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, 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). The profile is turned slightly from the coast so it does not run into an island or a headland.
