  • High tide at 4:35 am, coefficient 93
  • Major period 2:11–4:11 am
  • Pressure dropping fast (−0.36 inHg in 24 h): bad weather on the way, light cross-shore wind (4 mph) and some swell (2.5 ft waves) to stir the water
  • Waning gibbous: a bit more activity than at the quarters
  • Highest tide coefficient today: 93 (spring tides)
  • A major period lines up with sunset

Your day at a glance

The best window, 3:30 am to 4:10 am, combines the 4:35 am high tide, a major period and some swell. Also worth a try from 3:50 pm to 4:40 pm, with the 4:50 pm high tide, a major period, sunset and some swell, though with fresh wind. Also good from 9:20 am to 11:20 am, with the 10:23 am low tide and some swell.

Today's high and low tides

  • ▼ Low tide 11:22 pm 1.6 ft

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 3 h 54 min to high tide at 4:35 am.

Tide coefficient 93 for the 4:35 am high tide and 89 for the 4:50 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 12.1 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 16 (14.6 ft) and the lowest, on April 19 (0.3 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 99, 13.0 ft range). The smallest, on October 19 (coefficient 31, 4.7 ft).

Where this tide comes from

B · Nearby station

Chute-aux-Outardes has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Baie-Comeau (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.

Sea and waves

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 4.4 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 4.4 ft.

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.

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 (−3.5 °F).

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 10:00 am to 11:20 am, combines slack water at low tide, 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.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 2:11–4:11 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:44–4:44 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 11:33 am–12:33 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 6:55–7:55 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

Shallow, gradual

Shallow, gradual bottom: 0 ft at 0.35 mi.

From the shoreline (1,050 ft from Chute-aux-Outardes) out to sea, heading southeast.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deepnot within 0.35 mi
  • 33 ft deepnot within 0.35 mi
  • 66 ft deepnot within 0.35 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 0.35 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Very shallow: the water doesn't reach 16 ft within 0.35 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 0.35 mi. For deeper dives, take a boat farther out.

Inside bays, estuaries and harbors the bottom changes a lot from spot to spot (channels and shoals): use this only as a rough guide. There is land ahead (an island, a headland or the far shore) 0.35 mi out.
