2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on December 25 (7.6 ft) and the lowest, on April 18 (0.1 ft).
Semidiurnal: two high and two low tides a day, of similar height.

Where this tide comes from
Lord's Cove has no station of its own, so we use the tide at St Lawrence (TICON-4), 13 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.

The sea at Lord's Cove
Sea stateSea state: moderate
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common3.7 ft
- Significant7.3 ft
- Highest expectedHighest15 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 15 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 15 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-shore wind. The coast faces south and the wind blows along the shore: drift and current run parallel to the beach.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Monday 2: 8.9 ft with a period of 7 s, from the west-southwest (rough).
Water temperature
Water temperature →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.

Surf in Lord's Cove today
Surf today

- 1.2 ft swell at 7 s from the south-southeast, short: weak, messy waves
- 5.9 ft wind swell at 5 s: messy waves
- Moderate offshore wind (17 mph): it holds up and grooms the waves
- Rising tide (low tide at 5:20 pm)
- Light: First light 7:19 am · sunrise 7:51 am · sunset 6:01 pm · last light 6:33 pm
- Tide: low 4:34 am (0.9 ft), high 11:28 am (7.1 ft), low 5:20 pm (1.0 ft) and high 11:47 pm (5.7 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.

Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 11:00 am to 12:00 pm, has a good size and light offshore wind, though with a short-period swell and wind swell. 6:00 pm to 6:33 pm can also work, with a good size, though with a short-period swell, wind swell and cross-shore 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, 4:30 pm to 6:00 pm, combines slack water at low tide and weak current, though with waves and moderate wind. Also worth a look from 10:40 am to 11:50 am, with slack water at high tide, weak current and the sun high, though with waves and 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- 2:48–4:48 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 3:20–5:20 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 11:56 am–12:56 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 7:45–8:45 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. Very shallow: the water doesn't reach 16 ft within 3.1 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 3.1 mi. For deeper dives, take a boat farther out.
