Tides

Tides in Stintino

Today's high and low tides

  • ▲ High tide 11:12 am 1.0 ft
  • ▼ Low tide 6:02 pm 0.4 ft
  • ▲ High tide 10:43 pm 0.8 ft

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 4 h 10 min to low tide at 4:58 am.

In Stintino 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

Where this tide comes from

No significant tide

Tides from the Porto Torres station (TICON-4), 12 mi from Stintino. Times and heights are its predictions.

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Stintino

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: slight

Slight Douglas 3 · light breeze, Beaufort 2
Waves 2.1 ft · 6.2 s from the west-northwest (298°)

The waves you may find

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 4.2 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 4.2 ft.

On the coast 4 mph NNE · gusts 7

Cross-shore wind. The coast faces northwest and the wind blows along the shore: drift and current run parallel to the beach.

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 70.2 °F by Wednesday 4.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+4.2 °F).

Today’s surf at a glance

The best window, 8:00 am to 12:00 pm, has glassy water, though with 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.

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 Stintino 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.

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
  • 10:29–11:29 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:17–8:17 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

Drops off fast

The bottom drops off fast: the water is 33 ft deep just 160 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 0.45 mi.

From the shoreline (1.4 mi from Stintino) out to sea, heading northwest.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep80 ft
  • 33 ft deep160 ft
  • 66 ft deep650 ft
  • 164 ft deep0.45 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 39 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. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 160 ft and 66 ft at 650 ft from shore.

Right by the shore the bottom may drop even faster than shown.
