  • A minor period lines up with sunset

Bad weather during the best window: strong wind or big waves. If you go out, be very careful and stay off rocks and jetties.

Your day at a glance

The best window, 2:40 pm to 4:10 pm, combines the 3:38 pm low tide, a major period and some swell, though with rising pressure and very strong wind. Also worth a try from 1:50 am to 3:40 am, with the 2:53 am low tide, a major period and some swell, though with rising pressure and strong wind. Also worth a try from 8:20 am to 10:20 am, with the 9:21 am high tide, sunrise and some swell, though with rising pressure and very strong wind.

  • Low tide at 3:38 pm: more sand
  • Cloudy (93% cloud cover)
  • Feels like 19 °F: chilly for the beach
  • Very strong offshore wind (34 mph): it blows floats and inflatables out to sea

  • Water at 45 °F (very cold)

Today, hour by hour

  • Swimming Use care · 4.7 ft

    4.7 ft waves every 6 s: swim with care and stay where you can stand. Low rip current risk. Always follow the lifeguard's flags.

  • Water 45 °F

    Very cold: ease in and keep swims short.

  • Sun & sunscreen UV 1 · SPF 15

    Max UV 1 (low): SPF 15 sunscreen.

  • Wind 34 mph

    Very strong offshore wind (34 mph): blowing sand. Skip the inflatables: offshore wind carries them out to sea.

  • Tide & sand 2:53 am

    Low tide at 2:53 am and 3:38 pm: that's when there's the most sand. High tide at 9:21 am and 9:39 pm. Coefficient 106 (spring tides): little sand left at high tide.

Today's high and low tides

  • ▼ Low tide 2:53 am 0.6 ft
  • ▲ High tide 9:21 am 4.8 ft · coef. 106
  • ▼ Low tide 3:38 pm 0.4 ft

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 22 min to high tide at 9:39 pm.

Tide coefficient 106 for the 9:21 am high tide and 102 for the 9:39 pm high tide. Big spring tides. The water rises and falls 4.4 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 (5.0 ft) and the lowest, on July 16 (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 108, 4.4 ft range). The smallest, on October 19 (coefficient 20, 1.2 ft).

Sea and waves

The sea at Tilting

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: slight

Slight Douglas 3 · strong breeze, Beaufort 6
Waves 3.6 ft · 6.9 s from the northwest (321°)
Swell 2.6 ft · 9.1 s from the north-northeast
Current 0.4 mph toward the ESE

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common1.8 ft
  • Significant3.6 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest7.4 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 7.4 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 7.4 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 26 mph WNW · gusts 35

The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.

Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces northeast and the wind comes off the land at an angle: calmer water near the shore, and bait and boats drift out to sea.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+1.4 °F).

Today’s surf at a glance

The best window, 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm, has a good size. 11:00 am to 12:00 pm can also work, with a good size, though with wind swell.

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 5:30 pm, lines up with weak current, though with tidal current, some swell and strong wind. Also worth a look from 8:50 am to 10:00 am, with slack water at high tide, though with waves, very strong 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
  • 1:37–3:37 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:09–4:09 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 10:52–11:52 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 6:21–7:21 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 3.1 mi from shore the water is less than 16 ft deep.

From the shoreline (0.65 mi from Tilting) out to sea, heading northeast.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
  • 33 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
  • 66 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi

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.
