Tides

Tides in Skála Eresoú

Today's high and low tides

  • ▼ Low tide 11:14 am -0.4 ft
  • ▲ High tide 5:34 pm 0.2 ft
  • ▼ Low tide 10:48 pm -0.1 ft

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 3 h 34 min to high tide at 4:26 am.

In Skála Eresoú the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.7 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 April 18 (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

No significant tide

Tides from the FES2022 station (AVISO/CNES), 1.7 mi from Skála Eresoú. 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).

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Skála Eresoú

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: slight

Slight Douglas 3 · gentle breeze, Beaufort 3
Waves 2.0 ft · 4.5 s from the north (357°)
Swell 1.4 ft · 4.3 s from the north
Current 0.2 mph toward the NW

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common1.0 ft
  • Significant2.0 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest4.3 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 4.3 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 4.3 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 5 mph NNE · gusts 11
Offshore (10 mi SSE)Offshore 9 mph N · gusts 13

Offshore wind. The coast faces southwest and the wind blows from land out to sea: calm shore and clean waves, but watch the drift out to sea.

Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days

Waves ease over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Thursday 29: 4.1 ft with a period of 5 s, from the north (slight).

Water temperature

Water now70.3 °F
Today 70.2–70.3 °F air: 58 / 65 °F
Satellite (2 days ago) 67.5 °F measured 0.4 mi away

The satellite measured 2.9 °F less 2 days ago than the model gives now: the water is probably colder 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 warmer than normal for late October (+3.4 °F).

The best window, 6:13 am to 10:00 am, has glassy water, though with small waves, a short-period swell and wind 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, 9:00 am to 12:00 pm, combines light wind, weak current and the sun high.

In Skála Eresoú the tide barely moves the water, so there's no slack to wait for: swell, wind and current are what count.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 1:37–3:37 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:09–4:09 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 10:07–11:07 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:10–8:10 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

Deepens quickly

The bottom deepens quickly: 33 ft of water 0.3 mi from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 0.9 mi.

From the shoreline out to sea, heading southwest.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep1,000 ft
  • 33 ft deep0.3 mi
  • 66 ft deep0.5 mi
  • 164 ft deep0.9 mi

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 0.5 mi from shore.
