Tides in Voidokilia Beach
Today's high and low tides
- ▲ Next high tide 5:12 am 0.2 ft
- ▼ Low tide 11:56 am -0.2 ft
- ▲ High tide 5:51 pm 0.1 ft
- ▼ Low tide 11:20 pm -0.1 ft
↑ Rising The tide is rising. 51 min to high tide at 5:12 am.
In Voidokilia Beach the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.4 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 (0.3 ft) and the lowest, on August 12 (-0.3 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), 1.6 mi from Voidokilia Beach. Times and heights are its predictions.

The sea at Voidokilia Beach
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.9 ft
- Significant3.7 ft
- Highest expectedHighest7.6 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 7.6 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 7.6 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Offshore wind. The coast faces west 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 build over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Tuesday 3: 5.9 ft with a period of 7 s, from the west-southwest (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 72.9 °F by Wednesday 4.
Water warmer than normal for late October (+2.8 °F).

- First or last light of the day
- Light: First light 6:27 am · sunrise 6:54 am · sunset 5:39 pm · last light 6:06 pm
- Tide: We don’t have a reliable tide to show here.

Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 6:27 am to 10:00 am, has a good size and light offshore wind, though with 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.

The moon in Voidokilia Beach
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,597 mi away and looks 32′ 45″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:55–3:55 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:27–4:27 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 10:17–11:17 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 7:37–8:37 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 fastThe bottom drops off fast: the water is 33 ft deep just 130 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 0.9 mi.
From the shoreline (0.3 mi from Voidokilia Beach) out to sea, heading west.
How far from shore
- 16 ft deep70 ft
- 33 ft deep130 ft
- 66 ft deep0.45 mi
- 164 ft deep0.9 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 41 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 130 ft 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.
