Mont-Saint-Michel has no tide station nearby: this tide is calculated with a global ocean model. It is approximate (it may differ from the real tide by a few minutes and inches) and not for navigation. How we calculate it
Today there are high tides at 8:57 am (24.8 ft) and 9:21 pm (24.0 ft) and low tides at 12:35 am and 12:57 pm. Tide coefficient 80. Right now the tide is rising toward the high tide at 8:57 am. In Mont-Saint-Michel the tide is semidiurnal: two high and two low tides a day, of similar height. The next spring tides: from November 9 to 11.
Today's high and low tides
- ▼ Low tide 12:35 am -15.6 ft
- ▲ Next high tide 8:57 am 24.8 ft · coef. 80
- ▼ Low tide 12:57 pm -16.3 ft
- ▲ High tide 9:21 pm 24.0 ft · coef. 78
↑ Rising The tide is rising. 6 h 9 min to high tide at 8:57 am.
Tide coefficient 80 for the 8:57 am high tide and 78 for the 9:21 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 41.0 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?
Heights above mean sea level. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation.

Mont-Saint-Michel has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global FES2022 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 0.6 mi away). It may differ from the real tide by a few minutes and inches, and more with wind or storms. Heights are above mean sea level, not chart datum, so low tides are negative. Not for navigation.
