  • Mostly sunny
  • Water at 84 °F (very warm)
  • Low tide at 5:18 pm: more sand
  • Feels like 99 °F: very hot: drink water and find shade
  • Rain (0.13 in)
  • Light offshore wind (8 mph): it blows floats and inflatables out to sea

Today, hour by hour

  • Swimming Use care · 4.5 ft

    4.5 ft waves every 9 s: swim with care and stay where you can stand. High rip current risk. If you're caught in a rip current, don't swim against it: swim parallel to shore and wave for help. Always follow the lifeguard's flags.

  • Water 84 °F

    Very warm: barely refreshing.

  • Sun & sunscreen UV 11 · SPF 50

    Max UV 11 (extreme): SPF 50 sunscreen, reapplied every 2 hours. Seek shade 11:00 am–2:00 pm (very high UV).

  • Wind 8 mph

    Offshore breeze (8 mph). Watch floats and inflatables: offshore wind carries them out to sea.

  • Tide & sand 5:18 pm

    Low tide at 5:45 am and 5:18 pm: that's when there's the most sand. High tide at 12:02 pm and 11:46 pm. Coefficient 102 (spring tides): little sand left at high tide.

We don't have data on jellyfish, sargassum or beach closures: ask the lifeguard or check with the local beach authority. How it works · The next 7 days

  • ▲ High tide 11:46 pm 9.9 ft · coef. 98

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 4 h 32 min to high tide at 12:02 pm.

Tide coefficient 102 for the 12:02 pm high tide and 98 for the 11:46 pm high tide. Big spring tides. The water rises and falls 9.3 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 25 (10.4 ft) and the lowest, on October 28 (0.5 ft).

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

Heights above chart datum: the lowest astronomical tide (LAT), the zero of nautical charts in Europe. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. chart datum (LAT)

Tide coefficient and range in October

The biggest tides of the month came from October 11 to 12 (coefficient 107, 8.8 ft range). The smallest, on October 20 (coefficient 20, 2.5 ft).

Today’s surf at a glance

The best window, 5:30 am to 9:00 am, has 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, 4:30 pm to 6:10 pm, combines slack water at low tide, light wind and weak current, though with some swell. Also worth a look from 11:40 am to 12:30 pm, with slack water at high tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high, though with some swell.

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
  • 7:50–8:50 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 9:03–10:03 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

Gentle slope

The bottom slopes gently: 16 ft deep 0.25 mi from shore and 33 ft at 0.5 mi. It reaches 164 ft at 1.1 mi.

From the shoreline (0.4 mi from Legian) out to sea, heading west.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep0.25 mi
  • 33 ft deep0.5 mi
  • 66 ft deep0.7 mi
  • 164 ft deep1.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.25 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. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 0.5 mi and 66 ft at 0.7 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).
