Your day at a glance

The best window, 2:00 am to 4:00 am, combines a major period and some swell. Also good from 6:40 am to 7:40 am, with sunrise and some swell. Also worth a try from 2:30 pm to 4:30 pm, with a major period, a light onshore breeze and some swell, though with rising pressure.

Tides

Tides in Myrtiotissa

Today's high and low tides

  • ▼ Low tide 12:36 pm 0.3 ft
  • ▲ High tide 6:06 pm 0.6 ft

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 5 h 20 min to high tide at 6:14 am.

In Myrtiotissa the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.6 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 (1.0 ft) and the lowest, on March 4 (-0.2 ft).

Heights above MLWS. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. MLWS

Where this tide comes from

No significant tide

Tides from the Otranto station (TICON-4), 79 mi from Myrtiotissa. Times and heights are its predictions.

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Myrtiotissa

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: slight

Slight Douglas 3 · light breeze, Beaufort 2
Waves 3.2 ft · 5.6 s from the northwest (315°)
Swell 3.1 ft · 4.7 s from the northwest
Current 0.4 mph toward the WNW

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common1.6 ft
  • Significant3.2 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest6.7 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 6.7 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 6.7 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 1 mph N · gusts 3
Offshore (7.1 mi SSW)Offshore 5 mph NE · gusts 12

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

Waves build over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Monday 2: 6.2 ft with a period of 6 s, from the south-southeast (moderate).

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 (+2.2 °F).

Today’s surf at a glance

The best window, 7:00 am to 11:00 am, has glassy water, though with small waves and 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.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 12:20 pm to 3:20 pm, combines little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high.

In Myrtiotissa 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
  • 2:02–4:02 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:35–4:35 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 10:35–11:35 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:34–8:34 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 0.3 mi from shore and 33 ft at 0.35 mi. It reaches 164 ft at 0.8 mi.

From the shoreline out to sea, heading southwest.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep0.3 mi
  • 33 ft deep0.35 mi
  • 66 ft deep0.45 mi
  • 164 ft deep0.8 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.3 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. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 0.35 mi and 66 ft at 0.45 mi from shore.

Rough estimate: here the data comes in cells of about 0.3 mi and misses details near shore (rocks, sandbars, small coves). Where the bottom comes up to the surface there are shoals, rocks or an islet next to the profile.
