↑ Rising The tide is rising. 2 h 3 min to high tide at 6:55 am.

Tide coefficient 88 for the 6:55 am high tide and 84 for the 7:25 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 10.9 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. What is the tide coefficient?

2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on December 26 (13.4 ft) and the lowest, on August 14 (0.5 ft).

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

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)

Tide coefficient and range in October

The biggest tides of the month came from October 26 to 28 (coefficient 93, 11.3 ft range). The smallest, on October 19 (coefficient 34, 4.6 ft).

Tides from the Larmor-Baden station (REFMAR (Golfe du Morbihan ‑ Vannes Agglomération)), 0.4 mi from Larmor-Baden. Times and heights are its predictions.

Sea and waves

The sea at Larmor-Baden

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · moderate breeze, Beaufort 4
Waves 1.6 ft · 8.3 s from the west-southwest (248°)
Swell 1.5 ft · 5.8 s from the west-southwest

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.8 ft
  • Significant1.6 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest3.3 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 3.3 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 3.3 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 5 mph ENE · gusts 8
Offshore (7.7 mi SW)Offshore 13 mph E · gusts 17

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.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 12:50 pm to 2:20 pm, combines slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 7:50 am to 8:40 am, with little swell, light wind and weak 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.

Today's activity: medium
  • 2:37–4:37 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity

  • 11:49 am–12:49 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:30–8:30 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

Shallow, gradual

Shallow, gradual bottom: you need to go 1.3 mi out for 33 ft of water.

From the shoreline (0.4 mi from Larmor-Baden) out to sea, heading southwest.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep0.8 mi
  • 33 ft deep1.3 mi
  • 66 ft deep2.2 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.8 mi): cast far from the beach and fish the high tide, when there is more water close in.
  • Swimming. A very gentle way in with plenty of shallow water, good for kids. At low tide the water can be far out.
  • Diving. Shallow near shore: you only reach 33 ft at 1.3 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, go by boat.

Inside bays, estuaries and harbors the bottom changes a lot from spot to spot (channels and shoals): use this only as a rough guide. The profile is turned slightly from the coast so it does not run into an island or a headland. Where the bottom comes up to the surface there are shoals, rocks or an islet next to the profile.
