Tides

Tides in Koskinoù

Today's high and low tides

  • ▼ Low tide 6:04 am 0.3 ft
  • ▼ Low tide 5:26 pm 0.5 ft
  • ▲ High tide 11:53 pm 1.1 ft

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 56 min to high tide at 11:59 am.

In Koskinoù 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 August 13 (1.5 ft) and the lowest, on April 18 (0.0 ft).

Heights above chart datum: the lowest astronomical tide (LAT), the zero of nautical charts in Europe. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. chart datum (LAT)

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Koskinoù

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · light breeze, Beaufort 2
Waves 1.2 ft · 4.6 s from the south (178°)
Swell 0.9 ft · 4.2 s from the south
Current 0.2 mph toward the NW

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.6 ft
  • Significant1.2 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest2.5 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 2.5 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 2.5 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 6 mph N · gusts 12

The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.

Cross-shore wind. The coast faces east and the wind blows along the shore: drift and current run parallel to the beach.

Cross-shore 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 southeast (moderate).

Today 75.2–75.4 °F air: 60 / 68 °F

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 (+1.8 °F).

Today’s surf at a glance

The best window, 12:00 pm to 4:00 pm, has light offshore wind, though with barely any waves.

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, 8:50 am to 11:50 am, combines little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 3:30 pm to 5:10 pm, with little swell, light wind and weak current.

In Koskinoù 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
  • 1:27–3:27 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:00–4:00 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 9:47–10:47 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:11–8:11 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 450 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 0.55 mi.

From the shoreline (1.5 mi from Koskinoù) out to sea, heading east.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep360 ft
  • 33 ft deep450 ft
  • 66 ft deep0.25 mi
  • 164 ft deep0.55 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 11 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 450 ft and 66 ft at 0.25 mi from shore.

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