2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on August 28 (1.7 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)

Waves ease over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Thursday 29: 3.5 ft with a period of 5 s, from the west-northwest (slight).
Water temperature

Water about normal for late October.
