  • ▼ Low tide 3:45 pm -1.8 ft

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 2 h 19 min to high tide at 9:42 pm.

Tide coefficient 105 for the 9:14 am high tide and 101 for the 9:42 pm high tide. Big spring tides. The water rises and falls 3.8 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 December 25 (2.3 ft) and the lowest, on April 19 (-1.9 ft).

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

Heights above mean sea level. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. mean sea level

Tide coefficient and range in October

The biggest tides of the month came from October 26 to 27 (coefficient 108, 3.8 ft range). The smallest, on October 19 (coefficient 20, 1.0 ft).

Where this tide comes from

M · Global model

Glovertown has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global FES2022 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 4.5 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 Glovertown

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · gentle breeze, Beaufort 3
Waves 0.8 ft · 5.6 s from the north-northwest (342°)
Swell 0.6 ft · 3.5 s from the northwest
Current 0.0 mph toward the E

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.4 ft
  • Significant0.8 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest1.7 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 1.7 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 1.7 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 7 mph W · gusts 17
Offshore (14 mi ENE)Offshore 9 mph W · gusts 18

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.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 3:10 pm to 4:20 pm, combines slack water at low tide, little swell, weak current and the sun high, though with moderate wind. Also worth a look from 8:40 am to 9:40 am, 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.

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
  • 1:37–3:37 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:09–4:09 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 10:46–11:46 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 6:27–7:27 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 1.5 mi from shore the water is less than 16 ft deep.

From the shoreline (500 ft from Glovertown) out to sea, heading east.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deepnot within 1.5 mi
  • 33 ft deepnot within 1.5 mi
  • 66 ft deepnot within 1.5 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 1.5 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Very shallow: the water doesn't reach 16 ft within 1.5 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 1.5 mi. For deeper dives, take a boat farther out.

Inside bays, estuaries and harbors the bottom changes a lot from spot to spot (channels and shoals): use this only as a rough guide. There is land ahead (an island, a headland or the far shore) 1.5 mi out.
