Tides in Fertilia
Today's high and low tides
- ▼ Low tide 4:58 am 0.1 ft
- ▲ High tide 11:12 am 1.0 ft
- ▼ Next low tide 6:02 pm 0.4 ft
- ▲ High tide 10:43 pm 0.8 ft
↓ Falling The tide is falling. 4 h 2 min to low tide at 6:02 pm.
In Fertilia 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 September 26 (1.0 ft) and the lowest, on February 3 (-0.4 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 Fertilia
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.0 ft
- Significant2.0 ft
- Highest expectedHighest4.1 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 4.1 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 4.1 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Onshore wind. The coast faces south and the wind blows straight in from the sea: more surf and backwash at the shore, and bait and boats drift toward land.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Monday 2: 3.1 ft with a period of 5 s, from the north-northwest (slight).
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 69.3 °F by Wednesday 4.
Water warmer than normal for late October (+4.7 °F).

Surf in Fertilia today
Surf today
Poor- 1.0–1.5 ft surf at the shore, small: good for learning or a longboard
- 2.2 ft swell at 5 s from the west-northwest, short: weak, messy waves; it hits this coast at an angle
- Light offshore wind (6 mph): it holds up and grooms the waves
- First or last light of the day
- Light: First light 6:25 am · sunrise 6:53 am · sunset 5:27 pm · last light 5:55 pm
- Tide: We don’t have a reliable tide to show here.
- Water at 70.5 °F: a springsuit or a 2 mm fullsuit.
- Energy: 22 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 6:25 am to 10:00 am, has light offshore wind, though with small waves and a short-period swell.
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.
Diving in Fertilia today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: good- 2.1 ft swell at 5 s from the west-northwest: some surge on the bottom
- Almost no wind
- 0.2 mph current toward the west, weak (model)
- Sun high: more light underwater
- Slack water today: none; the tide doesn't count here
- Likely visibility: good. The sea has been calm and there's been little rain. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 70.5 °F: a 5 mm wetsuit.
- Snorkeling: doable, with some waves or wind.
- Night dive: dark from 5:55 pm. Waning gibbous (85%), rising at 7:48 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 9:10 am to 12:10 pm, combines light wind, weak current and the sun high.
In Fertilia the tide barely moves the water, so there's no slack to wait for: swell, wind and current are what count.
Never dive alone and check with the local dive shop: this rating is a guide, not a substitute for a professional.

The moon in Fertilia
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,618 mi away and looks 32′ 45″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:51–3:51 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:23–4:23 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 10:27–11:27 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 7:18–8:18 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 1,250 ft from shore.
From the shoreline (900 ft from Fertilia) out to sea, heading south.
How far from shore
- 16 ft deep370 ft
- 33 ft deep1,250 ft
- 66 ft deep1.1 mi
- 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 14 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. 33 ft deep 1,250 ft from shore; 66 ft is far out (1.1 mi): for deeper dives, go by boat.
Right by the shore the bottom may drop even faster than shown.
