Tides in Mandráki
Today's high and low tides
- ▲ High tide 12:09 am 0.3 ft
- ▼ Next low tide 7:01 am -0.2 ft
- ▲ High tide 12:30 pm 0.0 ft
- ▼ Low tide 5:48 pm -0.1 ft
↓ Falling The tide is falling. 5 h 24 min to low tide at 7:01 am.
In Mandráki 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 December 24 (0.3 ft) and the lowest, on February 2 (-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), 1.5 mi from Mandráki. 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 Mandráki
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.1 ft
- Significant2.3 ft
- Highest expectedHighest4.8 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 4.8 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 4.8 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.
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 build over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Wednesday 4: 3.6 ft with a period of 5 s, from the west-southwest (slight).
Water temperature
Water temperature →The satellite measured 3.2 °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 cools over the next few days: about 74.5 °F by Wednesday 4.
Water warmer than normal for late October (+4.4 °F).

Surf in Mandráki today
Surf today
Poor- 1.1–1.7 ft surf at the shore, small: good for learning or a longboard
- 1.5 ft swell at 4 s from the west, short: weak, messy waves
- Light offshore wind (8 mph): it holds up and grooms the waves
- First or last light of the day
- Light: First light 6:05 am · sunrise 6:32 am · sunset 5:18 pm · last light 5:45 pm
- Tide: We don’t have a reliable tide to show here.
- Water at 75.7 °F: boardshorts or a swimsuit and a rash guard.
- Energy: 8 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 6:05 am to 10:00 am, has light offshore wind, though with a short-period swell. 11:00 am to 3:00 pm can also work, though with small waves and 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.
Diving in Mandráki today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: fair- 1.4 ft swell at 4 s from the northwest: barely any surge
- Light cross-shore wind (9 mph)
- 0.4 mph current toward the northwest, weak (model)
- Sun high: more light underwater
- Slack water today: none; the tide doesn't count here
- Likely visibility: fair. Swell (up to 2.6 ft at 5 s) and rain (1.44 in) over the last few days have stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 75.7 °F: a 3 mm wetsuit.
- Snorkeling: doable, with some waves or wind.
- Night dive: dark from 5:45 pm. Waning gibbous (86%), rising at 7:45 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 9:00 am to 12:00 pm, combines little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high.
In Mandráki the tide barely moves the water, so there's no slack to wait for: swell, wind and current are what count.

The moon in Mandráki
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,597 mi away and looks 32′ 45″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:32–3:32 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:04–4:04 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 9:53–10:53 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 7:15–8:15 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 750 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 0.4 mi.
From the shoreline (1,000 ft from Mandráki) out to sea, heading southwest.
How far from shore
- 16 ft deep260 ft
- 33 ft deep750 ft
- 66 ft deep0.3 mi
- 164 ft deep0.4 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 22 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 750 ft and 66 ft at 0.3 mi from shore.
Right by the shore the bottom may drop even faster than shown.
