↑ Rising The tide is rising. 4 h 21 min to high tide at 6:53 am.

Tide coefficient 89 for the 6:53 am high tide and 83 for the 7:01 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 7.9 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 April 18 (9.5 ft) and the lowest, on December 24 (0.2 ft).

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

Where this tide comes from

B · Nearby station

Sinnamary has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Île Royale (TICON-4), 26 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.

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Sinnamary

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: slight

Slight Douglas 3 · moderate breeze, Beaufort 4
Waves 3.5 ft · 8.3 s from the north-northeast (26°)
Swell 2.5 ft · 9.9 s from the north
Current 0.7 mph toward the W

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common1.8 ft
  • Significant3.5 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest7.2 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 7.2 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 7.2 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 5 mph E · gusts 8
Offshore (9.0 mi NNW)Offshore 13 mph E · gusts 19

Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces north and the wind comes off the land at an angle: calmer water near the shore, and bait and boats drift out to sea.

Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water is steady these days, with no sudden changes.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+4.1 °F).

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 11:20 am to 1:30 pm, combines slack water at low tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high, though with some swell. Also worth a look from 6:30 am to 7:30 am, with slack water at high tide, light wind and weak current, though with some swell.

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
  • 2:07–4:07 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:39–4:39 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 9:04–10:04 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 9:14–10:14 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.
