Today's high and low tides

  • ▲ High tide 10:49 am 0.7 ft · coef. 82
  • ▼ Low tide 3:32 pm 0.4 ft
  • ▲ High tide 9:57 pm 1.1 ft · coef. 77

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 20 min to low tide at 4:29 am.

Tide coefficient 82 for the 10:49 am high tide and 77 for the 9:57 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 1.1 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 (1.2 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, 1.2 ft range). The smallest, from October 17 to 19 (coefficient 36, 0.6 ft).

Where this tide comes from

B · Nearby station

Santa Rosa de Aguán has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Puerto Castilla (NOAA), 21 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.

Today’s surf at a glance

The best window, 5:17 am to 9:00 am, has glassy water, though with a short-period swell. 4:00 pm to 5:36 pm can also work, with 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, 9:30 am to 12:30 pm, combines slack water at high tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 5:40 am to 6:20 am, with 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

  • 8:45–9:45 am Minor · moonset · 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 0.3 mi from shore and 33 ft at 0.7 mi.

From the shoreline (1 mi from Santa Rosa de Aguán) out to sea, heading north.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep0.3 mi
  • 33 ft deep0.7 mi
  • 66 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.3 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 0.7 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).
