Where this tide comes from
Pendé has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Étaples (REFMAR (Vigicrues)), 24 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.
Station data attribution: REFMAR, ETAPLES_VIGICRUES (Vigicrues), http://dx.doi.org/10.17183/REFMAR#6413, https://data.shom.fr/donnees/refmar/6413: sea level observations of 2025-09-30 to 2026-10-01.

The sea at Pendé
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.6 ft
- Significant3.2 ft
- Highest expectedHighest6.4 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 6.4 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 6.4 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-shore wind. The coast faces northwest and the wind blows along the shore: drift and current run parallel to the beach.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves ease over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Thursday 29: 3.3 ft with a period of 9 s, from the west (slight).

Surf in Pendé today
Surf today
Fair- 2.1–3.2 ft surf at the shore, a fun size for most surfers
- 2.6 ft swell at 8 s from the west, short: weak, messy waves
- Almost no wind (1 mph): glassy water
- First or last light of the day
- Falling tide (low tide at 10:55 am)
- Light: First light 7:05 am · sunrise 7:39 am · sunset 5:35 pm · last light 6:09 pm
- Tide: high 1:28 am (15.4 ft), low 10:55 am (2.0 ft), high 1:48 pm (15.3 ft) and low 11:19 pm (1.9 ft). Every break has its own tide: some work at low tide and others at high tide. The tide doesn’t change the score here.
- Water at 58.3 °F: a 4/3 fullsuit (booties if you run cold).
- Energy: 67 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 7:05 am to 11:00 am, has a good size and glassy water, though with a short-period swell. 5:00 pm to 6:00 pm can also work, with glassy water, though with a short-period swell.
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.

- Likely visibility: good. Swell (up to 3.0 ft at 10 s) over the last few days has stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 58.3 °F: a 7 mm wetsuit, with hood and booties.
- Snorkeling: doable, with some waves or wind.
- Night dive: dark from 6:09 pm. Waning gibbous (85%), rising at 7:25 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 8:10 am to 11:10 am, combines slack water at low tide, 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- 2:19–4:19 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:51–4:51 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 11:47 am–12:47 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 6:55–7:55 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.

For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Very shallow: the water doesn't reach 16 ft within 1.9 mi. Cast far from the beach, ideally around high tide.
- 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: the water doesn't reach 33 ft within 1.9 mi. For deeper dives, take a boat farther out.
Rough estimate: here the data comes in cells of about 0.3 mi and misses details near shore (rocks, sandbars, small coves). There is land ahead (an island, a headland or the far shore) 1.9 mi out. The profile is turned slightly from the coast so it does not run into an island or a headland.
