Today's high and low tides

  • ▲ High tide 2:19 pm 1.4 ft · coef. 105

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 1 h 55 min to low tide at 3:18 am.

Tide coefficient 105 for the 2:19 pm high tide. Big spring tides. The water rises and falls 1.0 ft between the highest high and the lowest low: a large range for this place. 70 is an average tide here; 90 and above means spring tides; below 45, neap tides. What is the tide coefficient?

2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on August 10 (1.6 ft) and the lowest, on May 4 (0.0 ft).

Mixed, mainly diurnal: on many days there is only one high and one low tide.

Heights above chart datum: the lowest astronomical tide (LAT), the zero of nautical charts in Europe. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. chart datum (LAT)

Tide coefficient and range in October

The biggest tides of the month came from October 28 to 29 (coefficient 105, 1.0 ft range). The smallest, on October 8 (coefficient 21, 0.4 ft).

Where this tide comes from

B · Nearby station

Baradères has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Saint-Louis-du-Sud (TICON-4), 18 mi away. On the open coast the difference is usually a few minutes and inches; inside estuaries, rivers and enclosed bays it can be much larger.

Sea and waves

The sea at Baradères

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · gentle breeze, Beaufort 3
Waves 0.9 ft · 8.9 s from the north (355°)
Swell 0.7 ft · 7.6 s from the north
Current 0.1 mph toward the NE

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.4 ft
  • Significant0.9 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest1.7 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 1.7 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 1.7 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 6 mph S · gusts 13
Offshore (20 mi NNW)Offshore 9 mph S · gusts 13

Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces northeast 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 (+0.9 °F).

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 1:20 pm to 3:10 pm, combines slack water at high tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high.

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.

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
  • 2:33–4:33 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 3:05–5:05 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 10:01–11:01 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 9:10–10:10 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.
