Tides in Oxílithos
Today's high and low tides
- ▲ Next high tide 4:55 am 0.4 ft
- ▼ Low tide 11:41 am -0.4 ft
- ▲ High tide 5:56 pm 0.2 ft
- ▼ Low tide 11:13 pm -0.1 ft
↑ Rising The tide is rising. 4 h 7 min to high tide at 4:55 am.
In Oxílithos 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 October 27 (0.4 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), 1.8 mi from Oxílithos. 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).

The sea at Oxílithos
Sea stateSea state: moderate
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common2.1 ft
- Significant4.2 ft
- Highest expectedHighest8.8 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 8.8 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 8.8 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-shore wind. The coast faces east and the wind blows along the shore: drift and current run parallel to the beach.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves ease over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Thursday 29: 5.8 ft with a period of 5 s, from the north-northeast (moderate).
Water temperature
Water temperature →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 66.7 °F by Wednesday 4.
Water about normal for late October.

Surf in Oxílithos today
Surf today
Poor- 2.8–4.2 ft surf at the shore, a good size with some punch
- 3.7 ft swell at 5 s from the northeast, short: weak, messy waves
- Moderate cross-shore wind (15 mph): a bit of chop
- Light: First light 6:19 am · sunrise 6:47 am · sunset 5:27 pm · last light 5:55 pm
- Tide: We don’t have a reliable tide to show here.
- Water at 67.6 °F: a springsuit or a 2 mm fullsuit.
- Energy: 79 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 10:00 am to 2:00 pm, has a good size, though with a short-period swell and cross-shore wind. 8:00 am to 9:00 am can also work, with a good size, though with a short-period swell, wind swell and cross-shore wind. 5:00 pm to 5:55 pm can also work, with a good size, though with a short-period swell and cross-shore wind.
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 Oxílithos today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: poor- 2.8 ft swell at 5 s from the northeast: some surge on the bottom
- Moderate cross-shore wind (13 mph)
- 1.0 mph current toward the east-southeast (model)
- Daylight
- Slack water today: none; the tide doesn't count here
- Likely visibility: poor. Swell (up to 5.6 ft at 6 s) and rain (2.22 in) over the last few days have stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 67.6 °F: a 5 mm wetsuit.
- Snorkeling: better not, with these waves, wind or current.
- Night dive: dark from 5:55 pm. Waning gibbous (86%), rising at 7:50 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window runs from 2:30 pm to 5:30 pm, though with moderate wind and current. Also worth a look from 9:10 am to 12:10 pm, with the sun high, though with some swell, moderate wind and current.
In Oxílithos 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 Oxílithos
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,597 mi away and looks 32′ 45″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:44–3:44 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:17–4:17 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 10:13–11:13 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 7:20–8:20 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.

For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. 33 ft of water just 0.3 mi from shore: a good cast reaches deep water. Current and surf hit harder here.
- Swimming. The water gets deeper little by little, but a few dozen yards out you can no longer stand.
- Diving. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 0.3 mi and 66 ft at 0.85 mi from shore.
