↑ Rising The tide is rising. 4 h 5 min to high tide at 4:56 am.

In Crotone the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.6 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 (0.9 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 best window, 6:00 am to 10:00 am, has light offshore wind, though with a short-period swell. 11:00 am to 3:00 pm can also work, though with small waves, a short-period 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.

The best window, 11:30 am to 2:30 pm, combines little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high.

In Crotone the tide barely moves the water, so there's no slack to wait for: swell, wind and current are what count.
