Tides

Tides in Périer

Today's high and low tides

  • ▼ Low tide 3:59 am 0.4 ft
  • ▼ Low tide 5:26 pm 0.6 ft
  • ▲ High tide 9:46 pm 1.0 ft

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 4 h 6 min to high tide at 10:06 am.

In Périer the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.8 ft between high and low tide. Here the sea level is moved mostly by wind and air pressure (storm surge), which can raise or lower it more than the tide itself.

2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on November 27 (1.3 ft) and the lowest, on July 16 (0.1 ft).

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)

Where this tide comes from

No significant tide

Tides from the Marseille station (UHSLC, TICON-4), 2.1 mi from Périer. Times and heights are its predictions.

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Périer

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · light breeze, Beaufort 2
Waves 0.8 ft · 3.9 s from the west (272°)
Swell 0.7 ft · 3.4 s from the west
Current 0.6 mph toward the NW

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.4 ft
  • Significant0.8 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest1.7 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 1.7 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 1.7 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 4 mph E · gusts 6
Offshore (6.8 mi WSW)Offshore 7 mph N · gusts 12

Offshore wind. The coast faces southwest and the wind blows from land out to sea: calm shore and clean waves, but watch the drift out to sea.

Offshore Hourly wind →

Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Tuesday 3: 2.2 ft with a period of 4 s, from the northwest (slight).

Today 66.7–67.8 °F air: 59 / 69 °F

Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water warms over the next few days: about 68.3 °F by Wednesday 4.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+2.2 °F).

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 9:20 am to 12:20 pm, combines little swell, light wind and the sun high, though with current.

In Périer the tide barely moves the water, so there's no slack to wait for: swell, wind and current are what count.

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
  • 2:03–4:03 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:35–4:35 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 10:52–11:52 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:18–8:18 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

Deepens quickly

The bottom deepens quickly: 33 ft of water 1,150 ft from shore.

From the shoreline (0.95 mi from Périer) out to sea, heading southwest.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep230 ft
  • 33 ft deep1,150 ft
  • 66 ft deep0.8 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 29 ft just 330 ft out. Good for casting from rocks, jetties or the beach itself; current and surf hit harder here.
  • Swimming. The bottom drops quickly near the shore and you are soon out of your depth. Keep an eye on kids and weak swimmers.
  • Diving. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 1,150 ft and 66 ft at 0.8 mi from shore.

Right by the shore the bottom may drop even faster than shown.
