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

Where this tide comes from
Mola di Bari has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Bari (TICON-4), 13 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 sea at Mola di Bari
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.7 ft
- Significant3.4 ft
- Highest expectedHighest7.1 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 7.1 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 7.1 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces north 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 build over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Monday 2: 7.1 ft with a period of 6 s, from the east (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 67.5 °F by Wednesday 4.
Water warmer than normal for late October (+3.1 °F).

Surf in Mola di Bari today
Surf today
Poor- 1.4–2.1 ft surf at the shore, a fun size for most surfers
- 1.9 ft swell at 4 s from the north-northwest, short: weak, messy waves
- Light offshore wind (9 mph): it holds up and grooms the waves
- Falling tide (low tide at 11:45 am)
- Light: First light 5:50 am · sunrise 6:19 am · sunset 4:51 pm · last light 5:20 pm
- Tide: high 5:10 am (1.3 ft), low 11:45 am (0.4 ft), high 5:03 pm (0.8 ft) and low 10:49 pm (0.2 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 69.1 °F: a springsuit or a 2 mm fullsuit.
- Energy: 10 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 6:00 am to 9:00 am, has light offshore wind, though with a short-period swell. 10:00 am to 2:00 pm can also work, though with a short-period swell, wind swell and onshore wind.
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.

- Likely visibility: good. Swell (up to 2.8 ft at 5 s) over the last few days has stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 69.1 °F: a 5 mm wetsuit.
- Snorkeling: doable, with some waves or wind.
- Night dive: dark from 5:20 pm. Waning gibbous (85%), rising at 7:09 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 3:20 pm to 4:50 pm, combines slack water at high tide, little swell, light wind and weak current. Also worth a look from 10:50 am to 12:50 pm, with slack water at low tide, little swell, 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.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,618 mi away and looks 32′ 45″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:14–3:14 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:46–3:46 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 9:53–10:53 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 6:39–7:39 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
Deepens quicklyThe bottom deepens quickly: 33 ft of water 850 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 2 mi.
From the shoreline (0.25 mi from Mola di Bari) out to sea, heading north.

- 16 ft deep300 ft
- 33 ft deep850 ft
- 66 ft deep0.75 mi
- 164 ft deep2 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 18 ft just 330 ft out. Good for casting from rocks, jetties or the beach itself; current and surf hit harder here.
- Swimming. The bottom drops quickly near the shore and you are soon out of your depth. Keep an eye on kids and weak swimmers.
- Diving. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 850 ft and 66 ft at 0.75 mi from shore.
Right by the shore the bottom may drop even faster than shown.
