Tides in Salvage
Today's high and low tides
- ▼ Next low tide 3:40 am 1.0 ft
- ▲ High tide 10:07 am 4.4 ft · coef. 97
- ▼ Low tide 4:38 pm 0.8 ft
- ▲ High tide 10:35 pm 3.3 ft · coef. 90
↓ Falling The tide is falling. 2 h 2 min to low tide at 3:40 am.
Tide coefficient 97 for the 10:07 am high tide and 90 for the 10:35 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 3.6 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 26 (4.7 ft) and the lowest, on May 18 (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 106, 3.8 ft range). The smallest, on October 19 (coefficient 23, 1.1 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Salvage has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Bonavista (TICON-4), 23 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 Salvage
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.0 ft
- Significant2.0 ft
- Highest expectedHighest4.0 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 4.0 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 4.0 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Offshore wind. The coast faces northeast and the wind blows from land out to sea: calm shore and clean waves, but watch the drift out to sea.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves build over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Sunday 1: 3.6 ft with a period of 5 s, from the north (slight).
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 Salvage today
Surf today
Fair- 1.2–1.9 ft surf at the shore, small: good for learning or a longboard
- 1.1 ft swell at 10 s from the northeast, average
- Light offshore wind (12 mph): it holds up and grooms the waves
- Falling tide (low tide at 4:38 pm)
- Light: First light 7:14 am · sunrise 7:46 am · sunset 5:49 pm · last light 6:22 pm
- Tide: low 3:40 am (1.0 ft), high 10:07 am (4.4 ft), low 4:38 pm (0.8 ft) and high 10:35 pm (3.3 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.
- Water at 45.5 °F: a 6/5 hooded fullsuit with booties and gloves.
- Energy: 24 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 11:00 am to 3:00 pm, has light offshore wind. 7:14 am to 9:00 am also works, with light offshore 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.
Diving in Salvage today

Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 9:30 am to 10:50 am, combines slack water at high tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 4:30 pm to 5:10 pm, with slack water at low tide, 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.

The moon in Salvage
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,704 mi away and looks 32′ 44″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 2:39–4:39 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 3:12–5:12 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 11:58 am–12:58 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.

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.
