  • ▲ High tide 7:10 pm 7.4 ft · coef. 88

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 11 min to high tide at 8:03 am.

Tide coefficient 93 for the 8:03 am high tide and 88 for the 7:10 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, 7.8 ft range). The smallest, on October 19 (coefficient 23, 2.8 ft).

Tides from the Onisaki station (TICON-4), 2.0 mi from Tokoname. Times and heights are its predictions.

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Tokoname

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: calm (rippled)

Calm (rippled) Douglas 1 · light breeze, Beaufort 2
Waves 0.3 ft · 3.4 s from the northeast (53°)
Swell 0.2 ft · 3.8 s from the east-southeast
Current 0.2 mph toward the SE

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.2 ft
  • Significant0.3 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest0.7 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 0.7 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 0.7 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 3 mph NW · gusts 9
Offshore (9.9 mi NW)Offshore 6 mph NNE · gusts 13

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

Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Saturday 31: 1.7 ft with a period of 3 s, from the north-northwest (slight).

Water temperature

Water now70.0 °F
Today 70.0–70.3 °F air: 45 / 67 °F
Satellite (2 days ago) 72.7 °F measured 1.1 mi away

The satellite measured 2.7 °F more 2 days ago than the model gives now: the water is probably warmer than the forecast says.

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 68.4 °F by Wednesday 4.

Water about normal for late October.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 12:30 pm to 2:40 pm, combines slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 7:20 am to 9:00 am, with slack water at high tide, little swell, 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
  • 12:53–2:53 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:26–3:26 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 9:07–10:07 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 6:43–7:43 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.
