Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.
Heights above TLT. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. TLT

Where this tide comes from
Dalianwan has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Dalian (TICON-4), 7.4 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.

Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 10:40 am to 12:30 pm, combines slack water at high tide, weak current and the sun high, though with moderate wind. Also worth a look from 4:20 pm to 5:00 pm, with little swell and light wind, though with tidal current and current. Also worth a look from 8:40 am to 9:30 am, with light wind, weak current and the sun high, though with tidal current.
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.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,493 mi away and looks 32′ 46″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 12:57–2:57 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:29–3:29 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 9:25–10:25 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 6:31–7:31 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.
