The best window, 1:20 pm to 2:30 pm, combines the 1:25 pm low tide, a major period, a light onshore breeze and some swell, though with rising pressure. Also worth a try from 12:50 am to 2:10 am, with the 1:15 am low tide, a major period and some swell, though with rising pressure.

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 4 h 56 min to low tide at 1:25 pm.

Tide coefficient 93 for the 7:55 am high tide and 87 for the 7:06 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 7.6 ft between the highest high and the lowest low: a large 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 September 12 (8.2 ft) and the lowest, on December 25 (-1.0 ft).

Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.

Heights above NLLW. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. NLLW

Tide coefficient and range in October

The biggest tides of the month came from October 26 to 27 (coefficient 107, 7.7 ft range). The smallest, on October 19 (coefficient 23, 2.9 ft).

Where this tide comes from

B · Nearby station

Tahara has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Mikawa (TICON-4), 5.5 mi away. On the open coast the difference is usually a few minutes and inches; inside estuaries, rivers and enclosed bays it can be much larger.

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.

Today’s surf at a glance

The best window, 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm, has a good size, though with a short-period swell. 6:00 am to 9:00 am can also work, with 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, 12:20 pm to 2:30 pm, combines slack water at low tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 7:20 am to 8:50 am, with slack water at high tide, light wind and weak current.

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.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 12:52–2:52 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:24–3:24 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 9:04–10:04 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 6:42–7:42 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.
