Tides

Tides in Gianiskari Beach

Today's high and low tides

  • ▲ High tide 5:43 am 0.4 ft
  • ▲ High tide 6:16 pm 0.2 ft
  • ▼ Low tide 11:46 pm -0.2 ft

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 4 h 23 min to low tide at 11:54 am.

In Gianiskari Beach 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 April 17 (0.5 ft) and the lowest, on August 14 (-0.5 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), 1.6 mi from Gianiskari Beach. 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).

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Gianiskari Beach

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · light breeze, Beaufort 2
Waves 0.8 ft · 5.0 s from the west-northwest (301°)
Swell 0.7 ft · 4.5 s from the northwest
Current 0.2 mph toward the SSW

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.4 ft
  • Significant0.8 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest1.6 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 1.6 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 1.6 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 3 mph E · gusts 5
Offshore (8.1 mi NW)Offshore 6 mph NNE · gusts 12

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.

Waves build over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Tuesday 3: 2.2 ft with a period of 5 s, from the southwest (slight).

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 72.3 °F by Wednesday 4.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+1.0 °F).

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 9:20 am to 12:20 pm, combines little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high.

In Gianiskari Beach 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
  • 1:56–3:56 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:28–4:28 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 10:23–11:23 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:33–8:33 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 quickly

The bottom deepens quickly: 33 ft of water 0.25 mi from shore.

From the shoreline out to sea, heading west.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep850 ft
  • 33 ft deep0.25 mi
  • 66 ft deep1 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 6.9 ft just 330 ft out. Good for casting from rocks, jetties or the beach itself; 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. 33 ft deep 0.25 mi from shore; 66 ft is far out (1 mi): for deeper dives, go by boat.
