↑ Rising The tide is rising. 2 h 27 min to high tide at 10:20 pm.
Tide coefficient 80 for the 9:34 am high tide and 82 for the 10:20 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 6.4 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 (8.6 ft) and the lowest, on December 27 (-0.2 ft).
Semidiurnal: two high and two low tides a day, of similar height.
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 9 to 11 (coefficient 96, 7.0 ft range). The smallest, from October 18 to 19 (coefficient 33, 2.3 ft).

The sea at Beach Meadows Beach
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common0.9 ft
- Significant1.7 ft
- Highest expectedHighest3.4 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 3.4 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 3.4 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces southeast and the wind comes off the land at an angle: calmer water near the shore, and bait and boats drift out to sea.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves build over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Friday 30: 3.2 ft with a period of 5 s, from the south-southwest (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.
Water colder than normal for late October (−1.4 °F).

Surf in Beach Meadows Beach today
Surf today
Fair- 1.5–2.4 ft surf at the shore, a fun size for most surfers
- 1.7 ft swell at 8 s from the southeast, a bit short
- Light offshore wind (7 mph): it holds up and grooms the waves
- First or last light of the day
- Rising tide (high tide at 9:34 am)
- Light: First light 7:20 am · sunrise 7:50 am · sunset 6:14 pm · last light 6:44 pm
- Tide: low 3:33 am (2.4 ft), high 9:34 am (7.7 ft), low 4:12 pm (1.3 ft) and high 10:20 pm (6.6 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 52.2 °F: a 5/4 fullsuit with booties (and a hood if it’s windy).
- Energy: 36 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 7:20 am to 11:00 am, has light offshore wind. 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm can also work, with light offshore wind, though with a short-period 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.

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.

The moon in Beach Meadows Beach
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,432 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: high- 1:52–3:52 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:23–4:23 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 10:37–11:37 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 7:06–8:06 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. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 1.1 mi): cast far from the beach and fish the high tide, when there is more water close in.
- 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 near shore: you only reach 33 ft at 1.4 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, go by boat.
Rough estimate: here the data comes in cells of about 0.3 mi and misses details near shore (rocks, sandbars, small coves).
