Where this tide comes from
Pizarro has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global EOT20 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 5.6 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.

The sea at Pizarro
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.4 ft
- Significant2.9 ft
- Highest expectedHighest5.7 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 5.7 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 5.7 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Offshore wind. The coast faces west and the wind blows from land out to sea: calm shore and clean waves, but watch the drift out to sea.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Monday 2: 3.8 ft with a period of 14 s, from the west-southwest (slight).
Water temperature
Water temperature →Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water is steady these days, with no sudden changes.

- Almost no wind (2 mph): glassy water
- Rising tide (high tide at 5:58 pm)
- Light: First light 5:33 am · sunrise 5:55 am · sunset 5:52 pm · last light 6:13 pm
- Tide: high 5:24 am (5.9 ft), low 11:42 am (-5.9 ft) and high 5:58 pm (5.3 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 84.9 °F–86.2 °F: boardshorts or a swimsuit and a rash guard.
- Energy: 157 kJ · Medium power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 5:00 pm to 6:00 pm, has a good size, a clean swell and glassy water. 6:00 am to 10:00 am also works, with a good size and glassy water.
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.
Diving in Pizarro today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: fair- Slack water around low tide (11:42 am): little current from 11:20 am to 12:00 pm
- 2.6 ft swell at 12 s from the west-southwest: some surge on the bottom
- Almost no wind
- 0.2 mph current toward the southeast, weak (model)
- Sun high: more light underwater
- Slack water today: high tide 5:24 am (5:00–5:50 am), low tide 11:42 am (11:20 am–12:00 pm), high tide 5:58 pm (5:40–6:20 pm) and low tide 12:01 am (11:40 pm–12:20 am)
- Likely visibility: fair. Swell (up to 2.6 ft at 12 s) and rain (0.74 in) over the last few days have stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 84.9–86.2 °F: a shorty or a rash guard.
- Snorkeling: doable, with some waves or wind.
- Night dive: dark from 6:13 pm. Waning gibbous (83%), rising at 9:27 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 10:50 am to 12:40 pm, combines slack water at low tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high, though with some swell. Also worth a look from 4:50 pm to 6:10 pm, with slack water at high tide, light wind and weak current, though with some swell.
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.

The moon in Pizarro
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,775 mi away and looks 32′ 44″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:49–3:49 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:21–4:21 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 8:45–9:45 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 8:57–9:57 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
Drops off fastThe bottom drops off fast: the water is 33 ft deep just 130 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 0.45 mi.
From the shoreline (0.55 mi from Pizarro) out to sea, heading west.

- 33 ft deep130 ft
- 66 ft deep850 ft
- 164 ft deep0.45 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 47 ft just 330 ft out. Good for casting from rocks, jetties or the beach itself; current and surf hit harder here.
- Swimming. The bottom drops quickly near the shore and you are soon out of your depth. Keep an eye on kids and weak swimmers.
- Diving. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 130 ft and 66 ft at 850 ft from shore.
Rough estimate: here the data comes in cells of about 0.3 mi and misses details near shore (rocks, sandbars, small coves).
Source: NOAA ETOPO 2022 (CC0), cells of about 0.3 mi; depth below mean sea level. For reference only: not for navigation or anchoring.
