↓ Falling The tide is falling. 15 min to low tide at 1:45 am.
Tide coefficient 82 for the 7:32 am high tide and 80 for the 7:50 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 17.2 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 May 18 (19.6 ft) and the lowest, on March 21 (0.5 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 12 (coefficient 87, 16.9 ft range). The smallest, from October 19 to 20 (coefficient 39, 6.1 ft).

Where this tide comes from
L'Islet-sur-Mer has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Saint-Jean-Port-Joli (TICON-4), 7.9 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 L'Islet-sur-Mer
Sea state
The wave model doesn't reach L'Islet-sur-Mer: it's on inland water (an estuary, sound or sheltered bay) or far from the open sea. Wind is still available right here.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Offshore wind. The coast faces northeast and the wind blows from land out to sea: calm shore and clean waves, but watch the drift out to sea.

Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 2:19–4:19 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:52–4:52 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 11:29 am–12:29 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 7:15–8:15 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.
