Tides in Kamares
Today's high and low tides
- ▲ High tide 2:56 am 0.1 ft
- ▼ Next low tide 10:57 am -0.1 ft
↓ Falling The tide is falling. 4 h 10 min to low tide at 10:57 am.
In Kamares 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 December 24 (0.2 ft) and the lowest, on July 14 (-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
Tides from the FES2022 station (AVISO/CNES), 2.6 mi from Kamares. 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). Modified by TidePlanet: constants interpolated from the nearest model cells offshore; heights above mean sea level.
The sea at Kamares
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.8 ft
- Significant3.5 ft
- Highest expectedHighest7.4 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 7.4 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 7.4 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.
Onshore wind. The coast faces north and the wind blows straight in from the sea: more surf and backwash at the shore, and bait and boats drift toward land.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Tuesday 3: 5.7 ft with a period of 5 s, from the southwest (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 about normal for late October.

Surf in Kamares today
Surf today
Poor- 2.3–3.5 ft surf at the shore, a fun size for most surfers
- 0.8 ft swell at 4 s from the north, short: weak, messy waves
- 3.5 ft wind swell at 4 s: messy waves
- Light onshore wind (11 mph): a bit of chop
- Light: First light 6:15 am · sunrise 6:42 am · sunset 5:27 pm · last light 5:54 pm
- Tide: We don’t have a reliable tide to show here.
- Water at 68.4 °F: a springsuit or a 2 mm fullsuit.
- Energy: 35 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 8:00 am to 12:00 pm, has a good size, though with a short-period swell, wind swell and onshore wind.
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 Kamares today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: fair- 3.7 ft surface waves
- Light onshore wind (11 mph)
- 1.0 mph current toward the south (model)
- Daylight
- Slack water today: none; the tide doesn't count here
- Likely visibility: fair. Swell (up to 3.0 ft at 4 s) and rain (0.30 in) over the last few days have stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 68.4 °F: a 5 mm wetsuit.
- Snorkeling: better not, with these waves, wind or current.
- Night dive: dark from 5:54 pm. Waning gibbous (86%), rising at 7:54 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 6:40 am to 9:30 am, lines up with light wind, though with current. Also worth a look from 10:30 am to 12:30 pm, with the sun high, though with moderate wind and current.
In Kamares 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 Kamares
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,597 mi away and looks 32′ 45″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:42–3:42 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:14–4:14 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 10:04–11:04 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 7:24–8:24 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 quicklyThe bottom deepens quickly: 33 ft of water 1,200 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 1.6 mi.

- 66 ft deep0.65 mi
- 164 ft deep1.6 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. 33 ft of water just 1,200 ft 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 1,200 ft and 66 ft at 0.65 mi from shore.
The profile is turned slightly from the coast so it does not run into an island or a headland. Where the bottom comes up to the surface there are shoals, rocks or an islet next to the profile.
