Your day at a glance

The best window, 2:30 am to 3:30 am, combines the 3:27 am low tide, a major period and some swell, though with rising pressure. Also worth a try from 3:20 pm to 4:00 pm, with the 4:16 pm low tide, a major period and some swell, though with rising pressure and moderate wind.

  • Feels like 28 °F: chilly for the beach
  • Fresh offshore wind (19 mph): it blows floats and inflatables out to sea
  • Swim with care: 4.4 ft waves every 8 s; moderate rip current risk
  • Water at 46 °F (very cold)

Today, hour by hour

  • Swimming Use care · 4.4 ft

    4.4 ft waves every 8 s: swim with care and stay where you can stand. Moderate rip current risk. Always follow the lifeguard's flags.

  • Water 46 °F

    Very cold: ease in and keep swims short.

  • Sun & sunscreen UV 2 · SPF 15

    Max UV 2 (low): SPF 15 sunscreen.

  • Wind 19 mph

    Fresh offshore wind (19 mph): blowing sand. Skip the inflatables: offshore wind carries them out to sea.

  • Tide & sand 3:27 am

    Low tide at 3:27 am and 4:16 pm: that's when there's the most sand. High tide at 9:47 am and 10:05 pm. Coefficient 104 (spring tides): little sand left at high tide.

We don't have data on jellyfish, sargassum or beach closures: ask the lifeguard or check with the local beach authority. How it works · The next 7 days

Today's high and low tides

  • ▼ Low tide 3:27 am 1.1 ft
  • ▲ High tide 9:47 am 5.1 ft · coef. 104
  • ▼ Low tide 4:16 pm 0.7 ft

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 49 min to high tide at 10:05 pm.

Tide coefficient 104 for the 9:47 am high tide and 101 for the 10:05 pm high tide. Big spring tides. The water rises and falls 4.3 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 October 28 (5.1 ft) and the lowest, on June 17 (0.0 ft).

Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.

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 105, 4.3 ft range). The smallest, from October 19 to 20 (coefficient 25, 1.3 ft).

Where this tide comes from

B · Nearby station

Fermeuse has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Holyrood Bay (TICON-4), 31 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 Fermeuse

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: moderate

Moderate Douglas 4 · moderate breeze, Beaufort 4
Waves 4.2 ft · 9.8 s from the northeast (37°)
Swell 3.1 ft · 8.6 s from the north-northeast
Current 1.6 mph toward the SSW

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common2.1 ft
  • Significant4.2 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest8.4 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 8.4 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 8.4 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 10 mph WNW · gusts 18
Offshore (9.9 mi E)Offshore 16 mph WNW · gusts 23

Offshore wind. The coast faces east and the wind blows from land out to sea: calm shore and clean waves, but watch the drift out to sea.

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 43.4 °F by Tuesday 3.

Water colder than normal for late October (−1.1 °F).

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 9:10 am to 10:30 am, lines up with slack water at high tide, though with moderate wind and current. Also worth a look from 3:30 pm to 4:50 pm, with slack water at low tide, though with some swell, moderate wind and 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.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: high
  • 1:33–3:33 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:04–4:04 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 10:32–11:32 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 6:33–7:33 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.
