Where this tide comes from
Comfort Cove-Newstead has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global FES2022 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 1.4 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.

Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 9:50 am to 11:20 am, combines slack water at high tide, weak current and the sun high, though with moderate wind. Also worth a look from 4:00 pm to 5:50 pm, with slack water at low 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.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,704 mi away and looks 32′ 44″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 2:45–4:45 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 3:17–5:17 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 12:08–1:08 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 7:26–8:26 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.
