Tides

Tides in Menídi

Today's high and low tides

  • ▼ Low tide 12:36 pm 0.3 ft
  • ▲ High tide 6:06 pm 0.6 ft

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 4 h 45 min to high tide at 6:14 am.

In Menídi the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.6 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 October 27 (1.0 ft) and the lowest, on March 4 (-0.2 ft).

Heights above MLWS. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. MLWS

Where this tide comes from

No significant tide

Tides from the Otranto station (TICON-4), 159 mi from Menídi. Times and heights are its predictions.

Sea and waves

The sea at Menídi

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: calm (rippled)

Calm (rippled) Douglas 1 · light breeze, Beaufort 2
Waves 0.3 ft · 2.8 s from the north-northwest (334°)
Wind waves — —

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.2 ft
  • Significant0.3 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest0.6 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 0.6 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 0.6 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 2 mph NE · gusts 4
Offshore (7.0 mi WSW)Offshore 4 mph ENE · gusts 8

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.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 9:20 am to 12:20 pm, combines small waves, light wind and the sun high.

In Menídi 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.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 1:57–3:57 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:29–4:29 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 10:27–11:27 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:31–8:31 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.
