Today, hour by hour

  • Swimming Calm · 0.2 ft

    0.2 ft waves: calm for swimming. Low rip current risk. Always follow the lifeguard's flags.

  • Water 30 °F

    Very cold: ease in and keep swims short.

  • Sun & sunscreen UV 0 · SPF 15

    Max UV 0 (low): SPF 15 sunscreen.

  • Wind 13 mph

    Moderate offshore wind (13 mph). Skip the inflatables: offshore wind carries them out to sea.

  • Tide & sand 4:04 am

    Low tide at 4:04 am and 3:18 pm: that's when there's the most sand. High tide at 9:47 am and 10:30 pm. Coefficient 95 (spring tides): little sand left at high tide.

Today's high and low tides

  • ▼ Low tide 4:04 am 1.1 ft
  • ▲ High tide 9:47 am 2.3 ft · coef. 94
  • ▼ Low tide 3:18 pm 0.0 ft

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 3 h 40 min to high tide at 10:30 pm.

Tide coefficient 94 for the 9:47 am high tide and 95 for the 10:30 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 3.9 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 June 17 (4.8 ft) and the lowest, on November 26 (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 come from October 27 to 29 (coefficient 95, 4.1 ft range). The smallest, on October 20 (coefficient 44, 2.4 ft).

Today’s surf at a glance

The best window, 8:21 am to 12:00 pm, has light offshore wind, though with barely any waves.

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, 2:30 pm to 3:30 pm, combines slack water at low tide, small waves, light wind, weak current and the sun high.

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.

  • 2:01–4:01 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:33–4:33 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high 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

Gentle slope

The bottom slopes gently: 16 ft deep 0.5 mi from shore and 33 ft at 0.75 mi.

From the shoreline (600 ft from Sanirajak) out to sea, heading east.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep0.5 mi
  • 33 ft deep0.75 mi
  • 66 ft deep1 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.5 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 0.75 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).

Source: NOAA ETOPO 2022 (CC0), cells of about 0.3 mi; depth below mean sea level. For reference only: not for navigation or anchoring.
