Tides in Pólis
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. 3 h 55 min to high tide at 11:59 am.
In Pólis 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 Pólis
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.5 ft
- Significant3.0 ft
- Highest expectedHighest6.1 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 6.1 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 6.1 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Offshore wind. The coast faces north 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 Wednesday 4: 4.8 ft with a period of 6 s, from the west (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.

Surf in Pólis today
Surf today
Poor- 1.3–2.0 ft surf at the shore, a fun size for most surfers
- 3.4 ft swell at 5 s from the west-southwest, short: weak, messy waves; it hits this coast at an angle
- Moderate offshore wind (13 mph): it holds up and grooms the waves
- Light: First light 5:42 am · sunrise 6:08 am · sunset 4:59 pm · last light 5:25 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: 51 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm, has light offshore wind, though with a short-period swell. 6:00 am to 9:00 am can also work, with light offshore wind, though with small waves and a short-period swell.
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 Pólis today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: good- 2.8 ft swell at 5 s from the west-southwest: some surge on the bottom
- Light offshore wind (8 mph)
- 0.2 mph current toward the east-northeast, weak (model)
- Sun high: more light underwater
- Slack water today: none; the tide doesn't count here
- Likely visibility: good. Swell (up to 3.1 ft at 6 s) over the last few days has stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 74.1 °F: a 3 mm wetsuit.
- Snorkeling: doable, with some waves or wind.
- Night dive: dark from 5:25 pm. Waning gibbous (86%), rising at 7:29 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 8:30 am to 11:30 am, combines light wind, weak current and the sun high.
In Pólis 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 Pólis
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
- 9:25–10:25 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
Gentle slopeThe bottom slopes gently: 16 ft deep 700 ft from shore and 33 ft at 0.45 mi. Right off the beach it already drops to about 10 ft. It reaches 164 ft at 1.7 mi.
From the shoreline (0.75 mi from Pólis) out to sea, heading north.

- 66 ft deep1.2 mi
- 164 ft deep1.7 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. About 10 ft of water 330 ft out: long casts help, and so does a rising tide, which brings fish closer in.
- 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. 33 ft deep 0.45 mi from shore; 66 ft is far out (1.2 mi): for deeper dives, go by boat.
