Where this tide comes from
Constitución has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global FES2022 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 2.6 mi away). It may differ from the real tide by a few minutes and inches, and more with wind or storms. Heights are above mean sea level, not chart datum, so low tides are negative. Not for navigation.
Model attribution: FES2022 Tide was produced by LEGOS, NOVELTIS and CLS, funded by CNES, and distributed by AVISO (https://doi.org/10.24400/527896/a01-2024.004), AVISO licence (https://www.aviso.altimetry.fr/fileadmin/documents/data/License_Aviso.pdf). Modified by TidePlanet: constants interpolated from the nearest model cells offshore; heights above mean sea level.
The sea at Constitución
Sea stateSea state: moderate
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common2.1 ft
- Significant4.1 ft
- Highest expectedHighest8.3 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 8.3 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 8.3 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 Saturday 31: 5.6 ft with a period of 11 s, from the west-southwest (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 60.4 °F by Tuesday 3.

Surf in Constitución today
Surf today
Fair- 2.1–3.2 ft surf at the shore, a fun size for most surfers
- 3.4 ft swell at 6 s from the southwest, short: weak, messy waves
- Almost no wind (3 mph): glassy water
- Rising tide (high tide at 12:43 pm)
- Light: First light 6:24 am · sunrise 6:51 am · sunset 8:16 pm · last light 8:43 pm
- Tide: high 12:12 am (2.8 ft), low 6:50 am (-2.2 ft), high 12:43 pm (1.2 ft) and low 6:23 pm (-1.8 ft). Every break has its own tide: some work at low tide and others at high tide. The tide doesn’t change the score here.
- Water at 60.3 °F–62.8 °F: a 4/3 fullsuit.
- Energy: 87 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 8:00 am to 12:00 pm, has a good size and glassy water, though with a short-period swell. 6:00 pm to 8:43 pm can also work, with a good size and glassy water, though with 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.

- Night dive: dark from 8:43 pm. Waning gibbous (92%), rising at 11:43 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 11:40 am to 1:50 pm, combines slack water at high tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high, though with some swell. Also worth a look from 6:50 am to 7:30 am, with slack water at low tide, light wind and weak current, though with some swell. Also worth a look from 5:40 pm to 7:10 pm, with slack water at low tide, light wind and weak current, though with waves.
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 Constitución
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,432 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: high- 2:24–4:24 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:56–4:56 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 7:43–8:43 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 11:13 pm–12:13 am 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. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.7 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 1.1 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).
