Where this tide comes from
Baile an Mhuilinn has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Fenit (TICON-4), 10 mi away. On the open coast the difference is usually a few minutes and inches; inside estuaries, rivers and enclosed bays it can be much larger.

The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.0 ft
- Significant2.0 ft
- Highest expectedHighest4.0 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 4.0 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 4.0 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces west and the wind comes off the land at an angle: calmer water near the shore, and bait and boats 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: 2.2 ft with a period of 5 s, from the south (slight).

Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 11:50 am to 1:00 pm, combines slack water at low tide, little swell, weak current and the sun high, though with fresh wind. Also worth a look from 7:30 am to 10:30 am, with little swell, light wind and weak current, though with tidal 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.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,641 mi away and looks 32′ 45″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 2:06–4:06 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:38–4:38 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 11:49 am–12:49 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 6:28–7:28 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

From the shoreline (2.3 mi from Baile an Mhuilinn) out to sea, heading west.
How far from shore
- 16 ft deep1.1 mi
- 33 ft deep1.3 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 1.1 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 1.3 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, go by boat.
Inside bays, estuaries and harbors the bottom changes a lot from spot to spot (channels and shoals): use this only as a rough guide. Where the bottom comes up to the surface there are shoals, rocks or an islet next to the profile.
