- Feels like 60 °F: chilly for the beach
- Rain (0.29 in)

- Swim with care: 5.9 ft waves every 6 s; high rip current risk
Today, hour by hour
- Swimming Use care · 5.9 ft
5.9 ft waves every 6 s: swim with care and stay where you can stand. High rip current risk. If you're caught in a rip current, don't swim against it: swim parallel to shore and wave for help. Always follow the lifeguard's flags.
- Water 68 °F
Cool: refreshing on a hot day.
- Sun & sunscreen UV 1 · SPF 15
Max UV 1 (low): SPF 15 sunscreen.
- Wind 23 mph
Fresh offshore wind (23 mph): blowing sand. Skip the inflatables: offshore wind carries them out to sea.
- Tide & sand
Kými has almost no tide: the beach stays the same all day.

Tides in Kými
Today's high and low tides
- ▲ High tide 4:26 am 0.4 ft
- ▼ Low tide 11:03 am -0.4 ft
- ▲ High tide 5:15 pm 0.2 ft
- ▼ Low tide 10:45 pm -0.2 ft
↑ Rising The tide is rising. 5 h 3 min to high tide at 4:55 am.
In Kými the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.9 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 October 27 (0.5 ft) and the lowest, on February 18 (-0.5 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
Tides from the FES2022 station (AVISO/CNES), 2.7 mi from Kými. 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). Modified by TidePlanet: constants interpolated from the nearest model cells offshore; heights above mean sea level.
The sea at Kými
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common2.0 ft
- Significant4.0 ft
- Highest expectedHighest8.3 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 8.3 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 8.3 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.
Cross-shore wind. The coast faces northeast and the wind blows along the shore: drift and current run parallel to the beach.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Wednesday 28: 5.9 ft with a period of 6 s, from the north-northeast (moderate).
Water temperature

Surf in Kými today
Surf today
Good- 3.4–5.2 ft surf at the shore, a good size with some punch
- 5.3 ft swell at 6 s from the north-northeast, short: weak, messy waves
- Almost no wind (3 mph): glassy water
- Light: First light 6:19 am · sunrise 6:46 am · sunset 5:28 pm · last light 5:56 pm
- Tide: We don’t have a reliable tide to show here.
- Water at 68.0 °F: a springsuit or a 2 mm fullsuit.
- Energy: 162 kJ · Medium power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 2:00 pm to 5:56 pm, has a good size and glassy water, though with a short-period swell.
An estimate for this stretch of coast, not for a specific break: every beach or reef works its own way (its tide, bottom and angle). Check it when you get there.
Follow the flags and the lifeguards, and don’t paddle out if the surf is above your level: this score is a guide, not a substitute for what you see when you get there.
Diving in Kými today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: poor- 4.9 ft swell at 5 s from the north-northeast: some surge on the bottom
- Almost no wind
- 1.1 mph current toward the east-southeast (model)
- Daylight
- Slack water today: none; the tide doesn't count here
- Likely visibility: poor. Swell (up to 3.8 ft at 5 s) and rain (2.85 in) over the last few days have stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 68.0 °F: a 5 mm wetsuit.
- Snorkeling: better not, with these waves, wind or current.
- Night dive: dark from 5:56 pm. Waning gibbous (93%), rising at 6:50 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 4:30 pm to 5:30 pm, lines up with light wind, though with some swell and current. Also worth a look from 1:30 pm to 3:10 pm, with light wind and the sun high, though with some swell and current.
In Kými 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.

The moon in Kými
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,471 mi away and looks 32′ 46″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: high- 12:41–2:41 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:13–3:13 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 9:01–10:01 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 6:20–7:20 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 slopeThe bottom slopes gently: 16 ft deep 460 ft from shore and 33 ft at 0.65 mi. Right off the beach it already drops to about 11 ft. It reaches 164 ft at 2.5 mi.

- 33 ft deep0.65 mi
- 66 ft deep1.5 mi
- 164 ft deep2.5 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. About 11 ft of water 330 ft out: long casts help, and so does a rising tide, which brings fish closer in.
- 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. Shallow near shore: you only reach 33 ft at 0.65 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).
Source: EMODnet Bathymetry DTM 2024, here using the GEBCO grid (CC BY 4.0), cells of about 0.3 mi; depth at the lowest astronomical tide. For reference only: not for navigation or anchoring.
