Today's high and low tides

  • ▲ High tide 12:52 pm 6.7 ft · coef. 85
  • ▼ Low tide 7:19 pm 2.1 ft

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 5 h 28 min to low tide at 6:05 am.

Tide coefficient 85 for the 12:52 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 6.0 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 24 (7.2 ft) and the lowest, on June 16 (0.1 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 27 (coefficient 98, 6.2 ft range). The smallest, from October 18 to 19 (coefficient 32, 2.7 ft).

Sea and waves

The sea at Harrington Harbour

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: slight

Slight Douglas 3 · gentle breeze, Beaufort 3
Waves 1.8 ft · 4.6 s from the southwest (235°)
Swell 1.5 ft · 4.4 s from the southwest

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.9 ft
  • Significant1.8 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest3.8 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 3.8 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 3.8 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 8 mph W · gusts 14
Offshore (1.0 mi W)Offshore 11 mph W · gusts 16

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.

Today’s surf at a glance

The best window, 6:10 am to 10:00 am, has light offshore wind, though with small waves and 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.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 11:50 am to 1:40 pm, combines slack water at high tide, little swell, 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
  • 1:34–3:34 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity

  • 11:05 am–12:05 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 6:08–7:08 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 0.45 mi.

From the shoreline (1,050 ft from Harrington Harbour) out to sea, heading southeast.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deepnot within 0.45 mi
  • 33 ft deepnot within 0.45 mi
  • 66 ft deepnot within 0.45 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 0.45 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Very shallow: the water doesn't reach 16 ft within 0.45 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 0.45 mi. For deeper dives, take a boat farther out.

There is little open water ahead: in a cove or small bay, cells of about 380 ft cannot show the bottom well near the rocks. There is land ahead (an island, a headland or the far shore) 0.45 mi out.
