Tide coefficient 91 for the 5:59 am high tide and 86 for the 6:33 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 14.7 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 March 20 (18.7 ft) and the lowest, on August 14 (1.0 ft).

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

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 12:30 pm to 1:20 pm, combines slack water at low tide, light wind and the sun high, though with some swell and current. Also worth a look from 5:30 pm to 6:30 pm, with slack water at high tide and light wind, though with some swell 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
  • 2:30–4:30 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 3:02–5:02 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 11:32 am–12:32 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:33–8:33 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

Very shallow

Very shallow and flat: even 3.1 mi from shore the water is less than 16 ft deep.

From the shoreline (1.9 mi from La Tremblade) out to sea, heading northwest.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
  • 33 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
  • 66 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Very shallow: the water doesn't reach 16 ft within 3.1 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 3.1 mi. For deeper dives, take a boat farther out.

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.
