Where this tide comes from
Ovari Paravarnattam has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global FES2022 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 0.9 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.
Model attribution: FES2022 Tide was produced by LEGOS, NOVELTIS and CLS, funded by CNES, and distributed by AVISO (https://doi.org/10.24400/527896/a01-2024.004), AVISO licence (https://www.aviso.altimetry.fr/fileadmin/documents/data/License_Aviso.pdf). Modified by TidePlanet: constants interpolated from the nearest model cells offshore; heights above mean sea level.

Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 9:00 am to 1:00 pm, has a good size, though with cross-shore wind. 3:00 pm to 6:00 pm can also work, with a good size, though with cross-shore wind.
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.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,531 mi away and looks 32′ 46″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:30–3:30 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:02–4:02 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 8:33–9:33 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 8:31–9:31 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 0.55 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 0.85 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).
