Tides in Valsinni
Today's high and low tides
- ▲ High tide 4:16 am 0.9 ft
- ▼ Low tide 10:39 am 0.2 ft
- ▲ High tide 4:22 pm 0.7 ft
- ▼ Low tide 10:19 pm 0.2 ft
↑ Rising The tide is rising. 5 h 11 min to high tide at 4:57 am.
In Valsinni the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.7 ft between high and low tide. Here the sea level is moved mostly by wind and air pressure (storm surge), which can raise or lower it more than the tide itself.
2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on October 27 (1.0 ft) and the lowest, on March 4 (-0.3 ft).
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

The sea at Valsinni
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common0.9 ft
- Significant1.7 ft
- Highest expectedHighest3.6 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
Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces northwest and the wind comes in from the sea at an angle: a bit more surf at the shore and drift along the coast, toward land.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Monday 2: 3.0 ft with a period of 3 s, from the north-northwest (slight).

The moon in Valsinni
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,461 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: high- 12:13–2:13 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 12:44–2:44 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 8:39–9:39 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.
