Tide coefficient 101 for the 2:58 am high tide and 99 for the 4:37 pm high tide. Big spring tides. The water rises and falls 7.9 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 November 27 (3.5 ft) and the lowest, on November 27 (-4.7 ft).
Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.

Tide coefficient and range in October
The biggest tides of the month came from October 28 to 29 (coefficient 101, 7.9 ft range). The smallest, from October 20 to 21 (coefficient 33, 3.0 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Mas has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global FES2022 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 2.6 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.

Sea stateSea state: smooth
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common0.4 ft
- Significant0.8 ft
- Highest expectedHighest1.7 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 1.7 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 1.7 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.
Offshore wind. The coast faces southwest and the wind blows from land out to sea: calm shore and clean waves, but watch the drift out to sea.

Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Thursday 29: 1.1 ft with a period of 3 s, from the south-southwest (smooth).

Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 9:20 am to 10:40 am, combines slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 4:30 pm to 5:20 pm, with slack water at high tide, little swell, 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.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,480 mi away and looks 32′ 46″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:11–3:11 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:43–3:43 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 7:49–8:49 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 8:38–9:38 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 0.8 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).
