Tides in Barking Lodge
Today's high and low tides
- ▼ Low tide 4:10 am -0.1 ft
- ▲ High tide 12:46 pm 1.2 ft · coef. 114
↓ Falling The tide is falling. 9 h 1 min to low tide at 5:05 am.
Tide coefficient 114 for the 12:46 pm high tide. Big spring tides. The water rises and falls 1.2 ft between the highest high and the lowest low: an average range for this place. 70 is an average tide here; 90 and above means spring tides; below 45, neap tides. What is the tide coefficient?
2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on October 27 (1.2 ft) and the lowest, on January 2 (-0.7 ft).
Mixed, mainly diurnal: on many days there is only one high and one low tide.
Heights above mean lower low water (MLLW), the zero of US nautical charts. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. MLLW
Tide coefficient and range in October
The biggest tides of the month come on October 29 (coefficient 117, 1.2 ft range). The smallest, on October 23 (coefficient 21, 0.4 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Tides from the Port Morant station (NOAA), 3.8 mi from Barking Lodge. Times and heights are its predictions. It is a NOAA subordinate station: its times and heights come from the Galveston reference station with the official corrections.

The sea at Barking Lodge
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.1 ft
- Significant2.2 ft
- Highest expectedHighest4.4 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 4.4 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 4.4 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces south and the wind comes in from the sea at an angle: a bit more surf at the shore and drift along the coast, toward land.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Sunday 1: 3.2 ft with a period of 6 s, from the east-southeast (slight).
Water temperature
Water temperature →Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water is steady these days, with no sudden changes.

Surf in Barking Lodge today
Surf today
Poor- 1.7–2.7 ft surf at the shore, a fun size for most surfers
- 2.6 ft swell at 6 s from the east-southeast, short: weak, messy waves
- Light cross-shore wind (4 mph)
- Rising tide (high tide at 12:46 pm)
- Light: First light 5:40 am · sunrise 6:03 am · sunset 5:35 pm · last light 5:57 pm
- Tide: low 4:10 am (-0.1 ft) and high 12:46 pm (1.2 ft). Every break has its own tide: some work at low tide and others at high tide. The tide doesn’t change the score here.
- Water at 84.9 °F–86.0 °F: boardshorts or a swimsuit and a rash guard.
- Energy: 44 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 6:00 am to 9:00 am, has a good size, 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.

- Snorkeling: doable, with some waves or wind.
- Night dive: dark from 5:57 pm. Waning gibbous (91%), rising at 7:49 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 11:50 am to 2:50 pm, combines slack water at high tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high.
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.
Never dive alone and check with the local dive shop: this rating is a guide, not a substitute for a professional.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,426 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 12:40–2:40 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:12–3:12 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 8:04–9:04 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 7:19–8:19 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.

For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.3 mi): cast far from the beach and fish the high tide, when there is more water close in.
- Swimming. A very gentle way in with plenty of shallow water, good for kids. At low tide the water can be far out.
- Diving. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 0.35 mi and 66 ft at 0.45 mi from shore.
Rough estimate: here the data comes in cells of about 0.3 mi and misses details near shore (rocks, sandbars, small coves).
