↑ Rising The tide is rising. 3 h 1 min to high tide at 10:51 pm.
Tide coefficient 104 for the 12:09 pm high tide and 103 for the 10:51 pm high tide. Big spring tides. The water rises and falls 4.7 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 February 1 (6.9 ft) and the lowest, on June 16 (-0.2 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 27 to 28 (coefficient 104, 4.7 ft range). The smallest, from October 19 to 20 (coefficient 35, 2.2 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Judique has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Havre Boucher (TICON-4), 14 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 Judique
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.4 ft
- Significant2.9 ft
- Highest expectedHighest6.0 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 6.0 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 6.0 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces northwest and the wind comes in from the sea at an angle: a bit more surf at the shore and drift along the coast, toward land.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Wednesday 28: 6.0 ft with a period of 6 s, from the north-northwest (moderate).
Water temperature
Water temperature →Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water cools over the next few days: about 50.7 °F by Tuesday 3.

Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 7:10 am to 11:00 am, has a good size, though with a short-period swell, wind swell and onshore 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 Judique today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: fair- Slack water around high tide (12:09 pm): little current from 11:50 am to 12:30 pm
- 3.0 ft swell at 5 s from the north-northwest: some surge on the bottom
- Moderate onshore wind (14 mph)
- 0.2 mph current toward the east-southeast, weak (model)
- Sun high: more light underwater
- Slack water today: low tide 5:08 am (4:53–5:23 am), high tide 12:09 pm (11:50 am–12:30 pm), low tide 5:13 pm (4:58–5:30 pm) and high tide 10:51 pm (10:30–11:10 pm)
- Likely visibility: fair. Swell (up to 2.9 ft at 5 s) and wind over the last few days have stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 52.0 °F: a 7 mm semi-dry suit, with hood, gloves and booties.
- Snorkeling: better not, with these waves, wind or current.
- Night dive: dark from 6:29 pm. Waning gibbous (92%), rising at 7:14 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 11:30 am to 1:10 pm, combines slack water at high tide, weak current and the sun high, though with moderate wind. Also worth a look from 4:40 pm to 5:40 pm, with slack water at low tide 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.

The moon in Judique
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,432 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: high- 1:38–3:38 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:10–4:10 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 10:32–11:32 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 6:44–7:44 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.
