Tides in Lempa
Today's high and low tides
- ▼ Low tide 6:04 am 0.3 ft
- ▲ Next high tide 11:59 am 0.8 ft
- ▼ Low tide 5:26 pm 0.5 ft
- ▲ High tide 11:53 pm 1.1 ft
↑ Rising The tide is rising. 4 h 31 min to high tide at 11:59 am.
In Lempa the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.7 ft between high and low tide. Here the sea level is moved mostly by wind and air pressure (storm surge), which can raise or lower it more than the tide itself.
2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on August 13 (1.5 ft) and the lowest, on April 18 (0.0 ft).
Heights above chart datum: the lowest astronomical tide (LAT), the zero of nautical charts in Europe. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. chart datum (LAT)

The sea at Lempa
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.7 ft
- Significant3.3 ft
- Highest expectedHighest7.0 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 7.0 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 7.0 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces southwest and the wind comes off the land at an angle: calmer water near the shore, and bait and boats drift out to sea.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Thursday 29: 5.4 ft with a period of 6 s, from the west-southwest (moderate).
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 about normal for late October.

Surf in Lempa today
Surf today
Fair- 2.0–3.1 ft surf at the shore, a fun size for most surfers
- 3.1 ft swell at 5 s from the west-southwest, short: weak, messy waves
- Almost no wind (1 mph): glassy water
- Light: First light 5:42 am · sunrise 6:08 am · sunset 5:00 pm · last light 5:26 pm
- Tide: We don’t have a reliable tide to show here.
- Water at 74.1 °F: a rash guard or a neoprene top.
- Energy: 37 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 6:00 am to 8:00 am, has a good size and glassy water, though with a short-period swell. 3:00 pm to 5:00 pm can also work, with a good size, though with a short-period swell and onshore wind.
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 Lempa today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: fair- 3.3 ft swell at 5 s from the west-southwest: some surge on the bottom
- Light offshore wind (5 mph)
- 0.2 mph current toward the southeast, weak (model)
- Daylight
- Slack water today: none; the tide doesn't count here
- Likely visibility: fair. Swell (up to 3.3 ft at 5 s) and rain (1.56 in) over the last few days have stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 74.1 °F: a 3 mm wetsuit.
- Snorkeling: better not, with these waves, wind or current.
- Night dive: dark from 5:26 pm. Waning gibbous (86%), rising at 7:29 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 6:10 am to 7:30 am, combines light wind and weak current, though with some swell. Also worth a look from 12:30 pm to 3:30 pm, with weak current and the sun high, though with some swell and moderate wind.
In Lempa the tide barely moves the water, so there's no slack to wait for: swell, wind and current are what count.
Never dive alone and check with the local dive shop: this rating is a guide, not a substitute for a professional.

The moon in Lempa
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,597 mi away and looks 32′ 45″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:10–3:10 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:42–3:42 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 9:24–10:24 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 6:59–7:59 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
Deepens quicklyThe bottom deepens quickly: 33 ft of water 0.25 mi from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 1 mi.
From the shoreline (1 mi from Lempa) out to sea, heading southwest.
How far from shore
- 16 ft deep310 ft
- 33 ft deep0.25 mi
- 66 ft deep0.85 mi
- 164 ft deep1 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 18 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 0.25 mi and 66 ft at 0.85 mi from shore.
Right by the shore the bottom may drop even faster than shown.
