The water rises and falls 7.0 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.

Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.

Where this tide comes from

M · Global model

Jinzhou has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global FES2022 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 2.7 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.

Sea and waves

The sea at Jinzhou

Slight Douglas 3 · gentle breeze, Beaufort 3
Waves 3.1 ft · 4.4 s from the west-southwest (253°)

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common1.6 ft
  • Significant3.1 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest6.5 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 6.5 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 6.5 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

Offshore (7.1 mi SSE)Offshore 11 mph WSW · gusts 17

Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces west 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.

Water colder than normal for late October (−1.5 °F).

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 8:30 am to 9:20 am, combines slack water at low tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also worth a look from 12:40 pm to 1:40 pm, with slack water at high tide, weak current and the sun high, though with moderate wind.

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
  • 12:57–2:57 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:29–3:29 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 9:26–10:26 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 6:30–7:30 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.
