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

Where this tide comes from

B · Nearby station

Pordic has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Saint-Quay-Portrieux (TICON-4), 5.3 mi away. On the open coast the difference is usually a few minutes and inches; inside estuaries, rivers and enclosed bays it can be much larger.

Sea and waves

The sea at Pordic

Waves 1.1 ft · 8.6 s from the west-northwest (302°)

The best window, 7:20 am to 11:00 am, has glassy water, though with barely any waves.

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, 2:30 pm to 4:00 pm, combines slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 8:00 am to 9:20 am, with slack water at high tide, 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.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 2:37–4:37 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 3:09–5:09 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 11:55 am–12:55 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:24–8:24 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 3 mi out for 33 ft of water.

From the shoreline (1.4 mi from Pordic) out to sea, heading northeast.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep2.3 mi
  • 33 ft deep3 mi
  • 66 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 2.3 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 3 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, go by boat.
