↓ Falling The tide is falling. 3 min to low tide at 9:10 am.

Tide coefficient 76 for the 2:56 am high tide and 75 for the 3:20 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 12.7 ft between the highest high and the lowest low: an average range for this place. 70 is an average tide here; 90 and above means spring tides; below 45, neap tides.

2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on October 10 (16.5 ft) and the lowest, on April 18 (0.9 ft).

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

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Zerstörerkaje

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · gentle breeze, Beaufort 3
Waves 1.5 ft · 4.9 s from the west-northwest (296°)
Swell 1.3 ft · 4.2 s from the west-northwest
Current 0.1 mph toward the S

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.8 ft
  • Significant1.5 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest3.1 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 3.1 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 3.1 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 4 mph WSW · gusts 8
Offshore (14 mi N)Offshore 9 mph WSW · gusts 12

Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces northwest and the wind comes in from the sea at an angle: a bit more surf at the shore and drift along the coast, toward land.

Waves build over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Monday 2: 4.2 ft with a period of 5 s, from the north-northwest (moderate).

Water temperature

Water now52.5 °F
Today 52.3–52.7 °F air: 47 / 57 °F
Satellite (2 days ago) 57.2 °F measured 0.7 mi away

The satellite measured 4.7 °F more 2 days ago than the model gives now: the water is probably warmer than the forecast says.

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 about normal for late October.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 1:10 pm to 4:10 pm, combines slack water at high tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 8:40 am to 9:40 am, with slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind and weak 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.

Today's activity: medium
  • 1:49–3:49 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity

  • 11:44 am–12:44 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 5:59–6:59 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

Drops off fast

The bottom drops off fast: the water is 33 ft deep just 160 ft from shore.

From the shoreline (0.85 mi from Zerstörerkaje) out to sea, heading northwest.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep80 ft
  • 33 ft deep160 ft
  • 66 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 33 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. 33 ft deep 160 ft from shore; 66 ft is far out (beyond 3.1 mi): for deeper dives, go by boat.

Inside bays, estuaries and harbors the bottom changes a lot from spot to spot (channels and shoals): use this only as a rough guide. Right by the shore the bottom may drop even faster than shown.
