Where this tide comes from
Baa has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global FES2022 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 2.1 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.
The sea at Baa
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
Offshore wind. The coast faces northwest and the wind blows from land out to sea: calm shore and clean waves, but watch the drift out to sea.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Thursday 29: 2.6 ft with a period of 6 s, from the south-southwest (slight).

Surf in Baa today
Surf today
Poor- 0.7–1.1 ft surf at the shore, small: good for learning or a longboard
- 1.8 ft swell at 6 s from the southwest, short: weak, messy waves; it hits this coast at an angle
- Light offshore wind (8 mph): it holds up and grooms the waves
- Falling tide (high tide at 12:36 pm)
- Light: First light 4:56 am · sunrise 5:18 am · sunset 5:45 pm · last light 6:07 pm
- Tide: low 6:24 am (-5.5 ft), high 12:36 pm (2.8 ft) and low 6:08 pm (-2.9 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 83.1 °F–84.2 °F: boardshorts or a swimsuit and a rash guard.
- Energy: 18 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 5:00 am to 9:00 am, has light offshore wind, 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.
Diving in Baa today
Diving and snorkeling today

- Light offshore wind (12 mph)
- 1.0 mph current toward the west-southwest (model)
- Sun high: more light underwater
- Slack water today: low tide 6:24 am (6:09–6:40 am), high tide 12:36 pm (12:10–1:00 pm) and low tide 6:08 pm (5:50–6:30 pm)
- Likely visibility: good. Swell (up to 2.2 ft at 9 s) over the last few days has stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 83.1–84.2 °F: a shorty or a rash guard.
- Snorkeling: doable, with some waves or wind.
- Night dive: dark from 6:07 pm. Waning gibbous (88%), rising at 9:04 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 11:40 am to 1:30 pm, 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.
Never dive alone and check with the local dive shop: this rating is a guide, not a substitute for a professional.

The moon in Baa
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,493 mi away and looks 32′ 46″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 12:51–2:51 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:23–3:23 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 7:13–8:13 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 8:34–9:34 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 0.75 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 0.8 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).
