Where this tide comes from

M · Global model

Bīrdaf has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global FES2022 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 1.5 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.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 8:40 am to 10:40 am, combines slack water at high tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 4:10 pm to 4:50 pm, with slack water at low tide, 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.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 12:45–2:45 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:18–3:18 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 8:31–9:31 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:04–8:04 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

Shallow, gradual

Shallow, gradual bottom: 16 ft at 0.5 mi from shore and 31 ft at 3.1 mi.

From the shoreline (1.1 mi from Bīrdaf) out to sea, heading southwest.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep0.5 mi
  • 33 ft deepnot within 3.1 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 0.5 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: the water doesn't reach 33 ft within 3.1 mi. For deeper dives, take a boat farther out.

Rough estimate: here the data comes in cells of about 0.3 mi and misses details near shore (rocks, sandbars, small coves). The profile is turned slightly from the coast so it does not run into an island or a headland.
