Tide coefficient 89 for the 8:09 am high tide and 79 for the 11:46 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 4.5 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.

Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.

Where this tide comes from

M · Global model

Raheita has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global FES2022 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 2.9 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 Raheita

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: slight

Slight Douglas 3 · fresh breeze, Beaufort 5
Waves 1.9 ft · 2.9 s from the southeast (142°)

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common1.0 ft
  • Significant1.9 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest4.2 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 4.2 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 4.2 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 14 mph SSE · gusts 22
Offshore (11 mi E)Offshore 22 mph SSE · gusts 29

Cross-shore wind. The coast faces east and the wind blows along the shore: drift and current run parallel to the beach.

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 colder than normal for late October (−1.4 °F).

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 3:20 pm to 4:50 pm, combines slack water at low tide, little swell and weak current, though with fresh wind. Also worth a look from 6:40 am to 7:30 am, with little swell, though with moderate wind and 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.

Never dive alone and check with the local dive shop: this rating is a guide, not a substitute for a professional.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 1:25–3:25 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:58–3:58 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 8:39–9:39 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 8:16–9:16 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.
