Where this tide comes from

M · Global model

Douprou has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global FES2022 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 2.6 mi away). It may differ from the real tide by a few minutes and inches, and more with wind or storms. Heights are above mean sea level, not chart datum, so low tides are negative. Not for navigation.

Model 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.

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Douprou

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · gentle breeze, Beaufort 3
Waves 0.4 ft · 3.3 s from the west-southwest (246°)
Swell 0.3 ft · 1.6 s from the west-southwest
Current 0.2 mph toward the W

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.2 ft
  • Significant0.4 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest0.9 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 0.9 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 0.9 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 2 mph W · gusts 6
Offshore (10 mi W)Offshore 8 mph W · gusts 13

Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces south and the wind comes in from the sea at an angle: a bit more surf at the shore and drift along the coast, toward land.

Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Friday 30: 0.9 ft with a period of 2 s, from the south (smooth).

Water now88.3 °F
Today 87.8–88.7 °F air: 75 / 89 °F
Satellite (yesterday) 84.7 °F measured 0.9 mi away

The satellite measured 3.6 °F less yesterday 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 is steady these days, with no sudden changes.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+4.3 °F).

The best window, 3:00 pm to 4:30 pm, combines slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind and weak current. Also good from 8:40 am to 10:10 am, with slack water at high tide, little swell, light wind and weak current.

Slack water comes from the tide: in inlets, channels and between islands the water can keep running for an hour or two after. Ask the local dive shop.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 1:22–3:22 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:53–3:53 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 8:28–9:28 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 8:18–9:18 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

Gentle slope

The bottom slopes gently: 16 ft deep 0.6 mi from shore and 33 ft at 0.8 mi.

From the shoreline (0.75 mi from Douprou) out to sea, heading south.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep0.6 mi
  • 33 ft deep0.8 mi
  • 66 ft deep1.2 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.6 mi): cast far from the beach and fish the high tide, when there is more water close in.
  • Swimming. A very gentle way in with plenty of shallow water, good for kids. At low tide the water can be far out.
  • Diving. Shallow near shore: you only reach 33 ft at 0.8 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, go by boat.

Rough estimate: here the data comes in cells of about 0.3 mi and misses details near shore (rocks, sandbars, small coves).
