What is the tide coefficient?
2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on November 25 (1.4 ft) and the lowest, on April 18 (-0.4 ft).
Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.
Heights above MLWS. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. MLWS
Tide coefficient and range in October

Where this tide comes from
Montesilvano has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Ortona (TICON-4), 17 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 stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common0.9 ft
- Significant1.7 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 3.6 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 3.6 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Offshore wind. The coast faces northeast 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 build over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Monday 2: 4.3 ft with a period of 6 s, from the northeast (moderate).
Water temperature
Water temperature →Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water cools over the next few days: about 64.0 °F by Tuesday 3.
Water warmer than normal for late October (+2.3 °F).

Surf in Montesilvano today
Surf today

- 1.7 ft swell at 4 s from the northeast, short: weak, messy waves
- Almost no wind (4 mph): glassy water
- First or last light of the day
- Falling tide (low tide at 11:04 am)
- Light: First light 6:03 am · sunrise 6:32 am · sunset 5:02 pm · last light 5:31 pm
- Tide: high 4:28 am (1.3 ft), low 11:04 am (0.5 ft), high 2:52 pm (0.7 ft) and low 9:38 pm (-0.0 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 67.8 °F: a springsuit or a 2 mm fullsuit.
- Energy: 7 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 6:03 am to 10:00 am, has glassy water, though with a short-period swell. 12:00 pm to 4:00 pm can also work, 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.

Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 10:10 am to 1:10 pm, combines slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high.
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 Montesilvano
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,461 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: high- 12:23–2:23 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 12:54–2:54 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 8:58–9:58 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 5:46–6:46 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 0.35 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 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, go by boat.
