Fishing in Myrtiotissa today
Best time to fish
Solunar activity today: medium- Major period 2:02–4:02 am
- Steady pressure (29.97 inHg), almost no wind and some swell (2.8 ft waves) to stir the water
- Waning gibbous: a bit more activity than at the quarters
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.
Species with the most records nearby: white seabream, salema, common two-banded seabream and saddled seabream. What you can catch

Tides in Myrtiotissa
Today's high and low tides
- ▲ Next high tide 6:14 am 0.9 ft
- ▼ 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
Tides from the Otranto station (TICON-4), 79 mi from Myrtiotissa. Times and heights are its predictions.

The sea at Myrtiotissa
Sea stateSea state: slight
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
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.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
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
Water temperature →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).

Surf in Myrtiotissa today
Surf today
Poor- 1.1–1.6 ft surf at the shore, small: good for learning or a longboard
- 2.2 ft swell at 4 s from the northwest, short: weak, messy waves; it hits this coast at an angle
- Almost no wind (2 mph): glassy water
- Light: First light 6:38 am · sunrise 7:06 am · sunset 5:43 pm · last light 6:11 pm
- Tide: We don’t have a reliable tide to show here.
- Water at 72.1 °F: a rash guard or a neoprene top.
- Energy: 15 kJ · Low power
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.
Diving in Myrtiotissa today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: good- 1.4 ft swell at 4 s from the northwest: barely any surge
- Almost no wind
- 0.5 mph current toward the northwest, weak (model)
- Sun high: more light underwater
- Slack water today: none; the tide doesn't count here
- Likely visibility: good. Swell (up to 3.7 ft at 5 s) over the last few days has stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 72.1 °F: a 3 mm wetsuit.
- Snorkeling: doable, with some waves or wind.
- Night dive: dark from 6:11 pm. Waning gibbous (86%), rising at 8:04 pm: a bright night.
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.

The moon in Myrtiotissa
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,597 mi away and looks 32′ 45″ across.
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.

- 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.
