Tides in Trinidad
Today's high and low tides
- ▼ Low tide 4:17 am 0.0 ft
- ▲ High tide 11:52 am 1.4 ft · coef. 84
- ▼ Next low tide 6:26 pm 0.4 ft
- ▲ High tide 11:00 pm 0.7 ft · coef. 83
↓ Falling The tide is falling. 30 min to low tide at 6:26 pm.
Tide coefficient 84 for the 11:52 am high tide and 83 for the 11:00 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 1.4 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 October 28 (1.4 ft) and the lowest, on January 3 (-0.3 ft).
Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.
Heights above mean lower low water (MLLW), the zero of US nautical charts. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. MLLW
Tide coefficient and range in October
The biggest tides of the month came from October 26 to 28 (coefficient 86, 1.4 ft range). The smallest, from October 18 to 19 (coefficient 43, 0.8 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Tides from the Casilda station (NOAA), 3.4 mi from Trinidad. Times and heights are its predictions. It is a NOAA subordinate station: its times and heights come from the San Juan reference station with the official corrections.

The sea at Trinidad
Sea stateSea state: smooth
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common0.2 ft
- Significant0.5 ft
- Highest expectedHighest1.0 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 1.0 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 1.0 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Onshore wind. The coast faces southwest and the wind blows straight in from the sea: more surf and backwash at the shore, and bait and boats drift toward land.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Sunday 1: 0.9 ft with a period of 4 s, from the southeast (smooth).
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.
Water warmer than normal for late October (+2.5 °F).

Surf in Trinidad today
Surf today
Flat- Barely any waves (0.3 ft sets): flat
- Light offshore wind (5 mph): it holds up and grooms the waves
- Rising tide (high tide at 11:52 am)
It’s flat today: almost no waves reach this coast.
- Light: First light 6:59 am · sunrise 7:22 am · sunset 6:46 pm · last light 7:08 pm
- Tide: low 4:17 am (-0.0 ft), high 11:52 am (1.4 ft), low 6:26 pm (0.4 ft) and high 11:00 pm (0.7 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 85.8 °F–86.9 °F: boardshorts or a swimsuit and a rash guard.
- Energy: 0 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 7:00 am to 11:00 am, has light offshore wind, though with barely any waves.
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.

Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 10:30 am to 1:20 pm, combines slack water at high tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 5:10 pm to 6:50 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.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,429 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:56–3:56 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:27–4:27 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 9:29–10:29 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 8:24–9:24 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.
