Tides in El Triunfo de la Cruz
Today's high and low tides

- ▲ High tide 10:00 am 0.6 ft · coef. 90

- ▲ Next high tide 9:10 pm 1.0 ft · coef. 87
↑ Rising The tide is rising. 5 h 10 min to high tide at 9:10 pm.
Tide coefficient 90 for the 10:00 am high tide and 87 for the 9:10 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 1.0 ft between the highest high and the lowest low: an average 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 (1.0 ft) and the lowest, on May 17 (-0.3 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 25 to 27 (coefficient 95, 1.0 ft range). The smallest, from October 18 to 19 (coefficient 35, 0.5 ft).

Where this tide comes from
El Triunfo de la Cruz has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Puerto Cortés (NOAA), 29 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 Key West reference station with the official corrections.

The sea at El Triunfo de la Cruz
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.3 ft
- Significant2.6 ft
- Highest expectedHighest5.2 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 5.2 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 5.2 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Onshore wind. The coast faces north and the wind blows straight in from the sea: more surf and backwash at the shore, and bait and boats drift toward land.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Wednesday 28: 2.6 ft with a period of 8 s, from the north-northeast (slight).
Water temperature
Water temperature →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.

Surf in El Triunfo de la Cruz today
Surf today
Fair- 1.9–3.0 ft surf at the shore, a fun size for most surfers
- 2.6 ft swell at 6 s from the north-northeast, short: weak, messy waves
- Light offshore wind (6 mph): it holds up and grooms the waves
- First or last light of the day
- Rising tide (high tide at 10:00 am)
- Light: First light 5:23 am · sunrise 5:45 am · sunset 5:22 pm · last light 5:44 pm
- Tide: low 3:46 am (-0.0 ft), high 10:00 am (0.6 ft), low 3:02 pm (0.3 ft) and high 9:10 pm (1.0 ft). Every break has its own tide: some work at low tide and others at high tide. The tide doesn’t change the score here.
- Water at 84.4 °F: boardshorts or a swimsuit and a rash guard.
- Energy: 49 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 5:23 am to 9:00 am, has a good size and light offshore wind, though with a short-period swell. 4:00 pm to 5:44 pm can also work, with a good size and glassy water, though with 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, 8:30 am to 11:30 am, combines slack water at high tide, light wind and the sun high, though with 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.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,426 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 12:27–2:27 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 12:58–2:58 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 7:46–8:46 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 7:10–8:10 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.

For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.35 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. 33 ft deep 0.5 mi from shore; 66 ft is far out (1.4 mi): for deeper dives, 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).
