Tides

Tides in Télendos

Today's high and low tides

  • ▲ High tide 12:59 am 0.2 ft
  • ▲ High tide 1:48 pm 0.0 ft
  • ▼ Low tide 6:25 pm -0.1 ft

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 44 min to low tide at 8:16 am.

In Télendos 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 25 (0.3 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

No significant tide

Tides from the FES2022 station (AVISO/CNES), 1.2 mi from Télendos. 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).

Sea and waves

The sea at Télendos

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · gentle breeze, Beaufort 3
Waves 1.6 ft · 4.1 s from the west-northwest (285°)
Swell 0.9 ft · 4.4 s from the west-southwest
Current 0.4 mph toward the SSE

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.8 ft
  • Significant1.6 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest3.3 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 3.3 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 3.3 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 8 mph N · gusts 18

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

Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces southwest and the wind comes off the land at an angle: calmer water near the shore, and bait and boats drift out to sea.

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 (+3.9 °F).

The best window, 8:00 am to 12:00 pm, has light offshore wind, 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.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 10:30 am to 1:30 pm, combines little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 6:30 am to 9:30 am, with little swell, light wind and weak current.

In Télendos 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
  • 1:33–3:33 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:05–4:05 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 9:55–10:55 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:14–8:14 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 600 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 0.8 mi.

From the shoreline (900 ft from Télendos) out to sea, heading southwest.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep210 ft
  • 33 ft deep600 ft
  • 66 ft deep0.45 mi
  • 164 ft deep0.8 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 600 ft and 66 ft at 0.45 mi from shore.

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