The best window, 6:50 am to 7:30 am, combines the 6:26 am high tide, sunrise and some swell, though with rising pressure and moderate wind. Also worth a try from 5:30 pm to 6:20 pm, with the 6:48 pm high tide, moonrise, sunset, a light onshore breeze and some swell, though with rising pressure.

The water rises and falls 13.3 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.

Semidiurnal: two high and two low tides a day, of similar height.

Where this tide comes from

B · Nearby station

Mulranny has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Clare Island (Marine Institute), 9.9 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.

Sea and waves

The sea at Mulranny

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: slight

Slight Douglas 3 · fresh breeze, Beaufort 5
Waves 3.1 ft · 5.8 s from the west-southwest (247°)

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common1.6 ft
  • Significant3.1 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest6.5 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 6.5 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 6.5 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 13 mph S · gusts 27
Offshore (11 mi NW)Offshore 21 mph S · gusts 27

Onshore wind. The coast faces south and the wind blows straight in from the sea: more surf and backwash at the shore, and bait and boats drift toward land.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 11:50 am to 1:30 pm, combines slack water at low tide, weak current and the sun high, though with moderate wind.

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: high
  • 1:03–3:03 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:34–3:34 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 10:44–11:44 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 5:18–6:18 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.
