↓ Falling The tide is falling. 8 h 3 min to low tide at 4:29 am.

Tide coefficient 113 for the 12:31 pm high tide. Big spring tides. The water rises and falls 1.1 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 December 24 (0.8 ft) and the lowest, on July 13 (-0.7 ft).

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

Tide coefficient and range in October

The biggest tides of the month come from October 28 to 29 (coefficient 115, 1.1 ft range). The smallest, on October 8 (coefficient 20, 0.5 ft).

Where this tide comes from

M · Global model

Tiburon has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global EOT20 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 5.4 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.

Sea and waves

The sea at Tiburon

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · moderate breeze, Beaufort 4
Waves 1.6 ft · 5.6 s from the southeast (138°)
Swell 1.4 ft · 4.8 s from the southeast
Current 1.0 mph toward the NW

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.8 ft
  • Significant1.6 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest3.4 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 3.4 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 3.4 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 13 mph ESE · gusts 21

The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.

Cross-shore wind. The coast faces southwest and the wind blows along the shore: drift and current run parallel to the beach.

The best window is 7:00 am to 11:00 am, though with small waves and a short-period swell.

An estimate for this stretch of coast, not for a specific break: every beach or reef works its own way (its tide, bottom and angle). Check it when you get there.

Follow the flags and the lifeguards, and don’t paddle out if the surf is above your level: this score is a guide, not a substitute for what you see when you get there.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 11:50 am to 12:50 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
  • 1:32–3:32 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity

  • 8:57–9:57 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 8:10–9:10 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.

Water depth

Deepens quickly

The bottom deepens quickly: 33 ft of water 900 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 0.45 mi.

From the shoreline (0.6 mi from Tiburon) out to sea, heading southwest.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep700 ft
  • 33 ft deep900 ft
  • 66 ft deep0.3 mi
  • 164 ft deep0.45 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. 33 ft of water just 900 ft from shore: a good cast reaches deep water. 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. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 900 ft and 66 ft at 0.3 mi from shore.

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

Source: NOAA ETOPO 2022 (CC0), cells of about 0.3 mi; depth below mean sea level. For reference only: not for navigation or anchoring.
