Tide coefficient 97 for the 8:15 am high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 1.5 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 June 14 (0.9 ft) and the lowest, on July 15 (-1.0 ft).

Mixed, mainly diurnal: on many days there is only one high and one low tide.

Tide coefficient and range in October

The biggest tides of the month come from October 29 to 30 (coefficient 97, 1.5 ft range). The smallest, from October 8 to 9 (coefficient 41, 1.0 ft).

Where this tide comes from

M · Global model

Ist has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global FES2022 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 1.7 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 Ist

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · moderate breeze, Beaufort 4
Waves 1.4 ft · 3.1 s from the north-northeast (13°)
Swell 0.9 ft · 3.0 s from the north
Current 0.2 mph toward the W

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.7 ft
  • Significant1.4 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest3.0 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 3.0 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 3.0 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 9 mph NE · gusts 16

The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.

Offshore wind. The coast faces southwest and the wind blows from land out to sea: calm shore and clean waves, but watch the drift out to sea.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 7:30 am to 9:10 am, combines slack water at high tide, little swell, light wind and weak current. Also good from 4:00 pm to 5:20 pm, with slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind and weak 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.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 1:24–3:24 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:56–3:56 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 10:17–11:17 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 6:34–7:34 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 fast

The bottom drops off fast: the water is 33 ft deep just 240 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 2.4 mi.

From the shoreline (1.2 mi from Ist) out to sea, heading west.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep140 ft
  • 33 ft deep240 ft
  • 66 ft deep0.9 mi
  • 164 ft deep2.4 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 49 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 240 ft and 66 ft at 0.9 mi from shore.

Rough estimate: here the data comes in cells of about 0.3 mi and misses details near shore (rocks, sandbars, small coves). The profile is turned slightly from the coast so it does not run into an island or a headland.
