The best window, 2:20 pm to 4:20 pm, lines up with a major period, though with rising pressure.

Species with the most records nearby: white seabream, dusky grouper, saddled seabream and common dentex. October is one of the months when these are seen most: dusky grouper. What you can catch

Tides

Tides in Stoúpa

Today's high and low tides

  • ▼ Low tide 11:57 am -0.1 ft
  • ▲ High tide 5:57 pm 0.1 ft
  • ▼ Low tide 11:16 pm -0.1 ft

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 3 h 16 min to high tide at 5:06 am.

In Stoúpa the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.3 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 May 16 (0.2 ft) and the lowest, on July 16 (-0.2 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), 0.8 mi from Stoúpa. 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 Stoúpa

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · light air, Beaufort 1
Waves 1.5 ft · 5.4 s from the west (260°)
Swell 1.3 ft · 4.6 s from the west-southwest
Current 0.2 mph toward the W

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.8 ft
  • Significant1.5 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest3.1 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 3.1 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 3.1 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 1 mph NNE · gusts 9
Offshore (6.5 mi S)Offshore 2 mph SE · gusts 9

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

Offshore Hourly wind →

Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days

Waves build over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Monday 2: 4.5 ft with a period of 5 s, from the south-southwest (moderate).

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 73.0 °F by Wednesday 4.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+2.9 °F).

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 9:10 am to 12:10 pm, combines little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high.

In Stoúpa 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
  • 1:52–3:52 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:25–4:25 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 10:14–11:14 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:35–8:35 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

Drops off fast

The bottom drops off fast: the water is 33 ft deep just 330 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 0.3 mi.

From the shoreline (0.3 mi from Stoúpa) out to sea, heading south.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep230 ft
  • 33 ft deep330 ft
  • 66 ft deep1,000 ft
  • 164 ft deep0.3 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 32 ft just 330 ft out. Good for casting from rocks, jetties or the beach itself; current and surf hit harder here.
  • 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. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 330 ft and 66 ft at 1,000 ft from shore.

Right by the shore the bottom may drop even faster than shown.
