Today's high and low tides

  • ▼ Low tide 2:47 am -0.1 ft
  • ▲ High tide 10:13 am 2.1 ft · coef. 84
  • ▲ High tide 9:21 pm 1.1 ft · coef. 83

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 5 min to low tide at 4:56 pm.

Tide coefficient 84 for the 10:13 am high tide and 83 for the 9:21 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 2.2 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 October 28 (2.1 ft) and the lowest, on January 3 (-0.5 ft).

Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.

Heights above mean lower low water (MLLW), the zero of US nautical charts. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. MLLW

Tide coefficient and range in October

The biggest tides of the month came from October 26 to 28 (coefficient 86, 2.2 ft range). The smallest, from October 17 to 19 (coefficient 44, 1.3 ft).

Where this tide comes from

B · Nearby station

Gressier has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Port-au-Prince (NOAA), 12 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. It is a NOAA subordinate station: its times and heights come from the San Juan reference station with the official corrections.

Sea and waves

The sea at Gressier

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: calm (rippled)

Calm (rippled) Douglas 1 · light air, Beaufort 1
Waves 0.1 ft · 5.2 s from the northwest (321°)
Swell 0.1 ft · 8.8 s from the north-northwest
Current 0.2 mph toward the WNW

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.1 ft
  • Significant0.1 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest0.3 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 0.3 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 0.3 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 3 mph ESE · gusts 11
Offshore (15 mi W)Offshore 3 mph W · gusts 9

Offshore wind. The coast faces northwest and the wind blows from land out to sea: calm shore and clean waves, but watch the drift out to sea.

Water now87.6 °F
Today 86.5–87.8 °F air: 74 / 88 °F
Satellite (yesterday) 84.6 °F measured 0.7 mi away

The satellite measured 3.1 °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.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 9:30 am to 11:10 am, combines slack water at high tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 4:00 pm to 6:20 pm, with slack water at low 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.

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
  • 1:24–3:24 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:56–3:56 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 8:50–9:50 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 8:01–9:01 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.
