Tides

Tides in Batumi

Today's high and low tides

  • ▲ High tide 12:13 am 0.2 ft
  • ▲ High tide 1:41 pm 0.1 ft
  • ▼ Low tide 6:43 pm -0.1 ft

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 6 h 23 min to low tide at 7:14 am.

In Batumi the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.4 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 July 15 (0.2 ft) and the lowest, on December 24 (-0.2 ft).

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. mean sea level

Where this tide comes from

No significant tide

Tides from the FES2022 station (AVISO/CNES), 1.7 mi from Batumi. Times and heights are its predictions.

Station data attribution: FES2022 Tide was produced by LEGOS, NOVELTIS and CLS, funded by CNES, and distributed by AVISO (https://doi.org/10.24400/527896/a01-2024.004), AVISO licence (https://www.aviso.altimetry.fr/fileadmin/documents/data/License_Aviso.pdf).

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Batumi

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · light breeze, Beaufort 2
Waves 0.8 ft · 2.7 s from the northeast (39°)
Swell 0.7 ft · 2.4 s from the northeast
Current 0.1 mph toward the S

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 3 mph SSE · gusts 4

The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.

Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces northwest 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 cools over the next few days: about 68.7 °F by Wednesday 4.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+3.6 °F).

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 10:00 am to 1:00 pm, combines little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high.

In Batumi 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
  • 2:31–4:31 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 3:04–5:04 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 11:12 am–12:12 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:54–8:54 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

Gentle slope

The bottom slopes gently: 16 ft deep 0.4 mi from shore and 33 ft at 0.75 mi. It reaches 164 ft at 2.3 mi.

From the shoreline (0.8 mi from Batumi) out to sea, heading northwest.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep0.4 mi
  • 33 ft deep0.75 mi
  • 66 ft deep1.6 mi
  • 164 ft deep2.3 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.4 mi): cast far from the beach and fish the high tide, when there is more water close in.
  • 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 near shore: you only reach 33 ft at 0.75 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, go by boat.

Rough estimate: here the data comes in cells of about 0.3 mi and misses details near shore (rocks, sandbars, small coves).
