Tides

Tides in Bordighera

Today's high and low tides

  • ▲ High tide 10:23 am 1.4 ft
  • ▼ Low tide 5:26 pm 0.8 ft
  • ▲ High tide 10:01 pm 1.2 ft

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 3 h 42 min to low tide at 4:17 am.

In Bordighera the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.8 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 November 27 (1.4 ft) and the lowest, on March 3 (0.1 ft).

Heights above chart datum: the lowest astronomical tide (LAT), the zero of nautical charts in Europe. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. chart datum (LAT)

Where this tide comes from

No significant tide

Tides from the Monaco Fontvieille station (TICON-4), 13 mi from Bordighera. Times and heights are its predictions.

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Bordighera

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · light breeze, Beaufort 2
Waves 0.5 ft · 4.7 s from the south (191°)
Swell 0.5 ft · 4.7 s from the southwest
Current 0.4 mph toward the SW

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.2 ft
  • Significant0.5 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest1.0 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 1.0 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 1.0 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 4 mph NNE · gusts 4

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

Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces southeast and the wind comes off the land at an angle: calmer water near the shore, and bait and boats drift out to sea.

Cross-offshore Hourly wind →

Waves build over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Monday 2: 2.6 ft with a period of 4 s, from the east-northeast (slight).

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 68.7 °F by Wednesday 4.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+4.6 °F).

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 9:10 am to 12:10 pm, combines little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high.

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

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 1:53–3:53 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:26–4:26 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 10:44–11:44 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:06–8:06 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 1,200 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 0.35 mi.

From the shoreline (0.3 mi from Bordighera) out to sea, heading southeast.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep1,100 ft
  • 33 ft deep1,200 ft
  • 66 ft deep0.3 mi
  • 164 ft deep0.35 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. 33 ft of water just 1,200 ft 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 1,200 ft and 66 ft at 0.3 mi from shore.
