The water rises and falls 8.8 ft between the highest high and the lowest low: an average range for this place. 70 is an average tide here; 90 and above means spring tides; below 45, neap tides.

Semidiurnal: two high and two low tides a day, of similar height.

Sea and waves

The sea at Clohars-Carnoët

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: moderate

Waves 5.2 ft · 10.5 s from the west (259°)

The waves you may find

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 10 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 10 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 7 mph ENE · gusts 12
Offshore (8.3 mi WSW)Offshore 10 mph E · gusts 14

Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces south and the wind comes off the land at an angle: calmer water near the shore, and bait and boats drift out to sea.

Today’s surf at a glance

The best window, 7:22 am to 11:00 am, has a good size and light offshore wind. 3:00 pm to 6:00 pm also works, with a good size and light offshore 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.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 12:00 pm to 3:00 pm, combines slack water at low tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high, though with some swell.

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
  • 2:40–4:40 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity

  • 11:53 am–12:53 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:32–8:32 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 slope

The bottom slopes gently: 16 ft deep 420 ft from shore and 33 ft at 0.45 mi. Right off the beach it already drops to about 11 ft.

From the shoreline (2.1 mi from Clohars-Carnoët) out to sea, heading south.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep420 ft
  • 33 ft deep0.45 mi
  • 66 ft deep1.2 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. About 11 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.

Right by the shore the bottom may drop even faster than shown.
