Where this tide comes from

M · Global model

Amantea has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global FES2022 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 1.9 mi away). It may differ from the real tide by a few minutes and inches, and more with wind or storms. Heights are above mean sea level, not chart datum, so low tides are negative. Not for navigation.

Model attribution: FES2022 Tide was produced by LEGOS, NOVELTIS and CLS, funded by CNES, and distributed by AVISO (https://doi.org/10.24400/527896/a01-2024.004), AVISO licence (https://www.aviso.altimetry.fr/fileadmin/documents/data/License_Aviso.pdf). Modified by TidePlanet: constants interpolated from the nearest model cells offshore; heights above mean sea level.

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Amantea

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · light breeze, Beaufort 2
Waves 0.9 ft · 4.9 s from the west (279°)
Swell 0.7 ft · 4.3 s from the west
Current 0.2 mph toward the N

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.4 ft
  • Significant0.9 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest1.8 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 1.8 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 1.8 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 6 mph ENE · gusts 12

The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.

Offshore wind. The coast faces west and the wind blows from land out to sea: calm shore and clean waves, but watch the drift out to sea.

The best window, 6:00 am to 10:00 am, has light offshore wind, though with barely any waves.

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, 10:20 am to 12:10 pm, combines slack water at high tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 4:10 pm to 5:00 pm, with slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind and weak 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.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 1:18–3:18 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:50–3:50 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 9:49–10:49 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 6:52–7:52 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 quickly

The bottom deepens quickly: 33 ft of water 0.25 mi from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 0.95 mi.

From the shoreline (0.25 mi from Amantea) out to sea, heading west.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep1,100 ft
  • 33 ft deep0.25 mi
  • 66 ft deep0.4 mi
  • 164 ft deep0.95 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. 33 ft of water just 0.25 mi from shore: a good cast reaches deep water. Current and surf hit harder here.
  • Swimming. The water gets deeper little by little, but a few dozen yards out you can no longer stand.
  • Diving. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 0.25 mi and 66 ft at 0.4 mi from shore.
