Is it a beach day?
- Low tide at 11:00 am: more sand
- Cloudy (83% cloud cover)
- Feels like 51 °F: chilly for the beach
- Light offshore wind (12 mph): it blows floats and inflatables out to sea
- Dangerous for swimming: 7.0 ft waves every 8 s; high rip current risk
- Water at 64 °F (cold)
Dangerous surf during beach hours. Stay out if the red flag is up, and never swim where there is no lifeguard.
Today, hour by hour
- Swimming Dangerous · 7.0 ft
7.0 ft waves every 8 s: dangerous for swimming. Stay out if the red flag is up. High rip current risk. If you're caught in a rip current, don't swim against it: swim parallel to shore and wave for help. Always follow the lifeguard's flags.
- Water 64 °F
Cold: ease in slowly.
- Sun & sunscreen UV 3 · SPF 15
Max UV 3 (low): SPF 15 sunscreen.
- Wind 12 mph
Offshore breeze (12 mph). Watch floats and inflatables: offshore wind carries them out to sea.
- Tide & sand 11:00 am
Low tide at 11:00 am and 10:02 pm: that's when there's the most sand. High tide at 3:08 am and 6:59 pm.

Today's high and low tides

- ▼ Low tide 10:02 pm 1.1 ft
↓ Falling The tide is falling. 2 h 13 min to low tide at 11:00 am.
Tide coefficient 93 for the 3:08 am high tide and 89 for the 6:59 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 1.0 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 August 11 (1.8 ft) and the lowest, on February 18 (-0.5 ft).
Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.
Heights above chart datum (CD), the zero of that port's 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. chart datum (CD)
Tide coefficient and range in October
The biggest tides of the month came from October 27 to 28 (coefficient 97, 0.9 ft range). The smallest, from October 19 to 20 (coefficient 27, 0.6 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Noshiro has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Funagawa Port (JMA), 22 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.

The sea at Noshiro
Sea stateSea state: moderate
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common3.2 ft
- Significant6.3 ft
- Highest expectedHighest13 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 13 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 13 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-shore wind. The coast faces west and the wind blows along the shore: drift and current run parallel to the beach.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Thursday 29: 9.6 ft with a period of 8 s, from the west-northwest (rough).
Water temperature
Water temperature →The satellite measured 4.7 °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 is steady these days, with no sudden changes.
Water warmer than normal for late October (+1.9 °F).

Surf in Noshiro today
Surf today

- 5.7 ft swell at 6 s from the west-northwest, short: weak, messy waves
- Almost no wind (2 mph): glassy water
- Falling tide (low tide at 11:00 am)
- Light: First light 5:37 am · sunrise 6:05 am · sunset 4:41 pm · last light 5:09 pm
- Tide: high 3:08 am (1.3 ft), low 11:00 am (0.3 ft), high 6:59 pm (1.2 ft) and low 10:02 pm (1.1 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 64.0 °F: a 3/2 fullsuit.
- Energy: 243 kJ · Medium power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 7:00 am to 11:00 am, has a good size and glassy water, though with a short-period swell. 3:00 pm to 5:00 pm can also work, with a good size and light offshore wind, 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.
Diving in Noshiro today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: poor- Slack water around low tide (11:00 am): little current from 10:40 am to 11:20 am
- 4.6 ft swell at 6 s from the west: some surge on the bottom
- Light offshore wind (9 mph)
- 0.0 mph current toward the east, weak (model)
- Sun high: more light underwater
- Slack water today: high tide 3:08 am (2:50–3:30 am), low tide 11:00 am (10:40–11:20 am), high tide 6:59 pm (6:30–7:40 pm) and low tide 10:02 pm (9:20–10:40 pm)
- Likely visibility: poor. Swell (up to 9.2 ft at 8 s) and rain (0.23 in) over the last few days have stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 64.0 °F: a 7 mm wetsuit, with hood and booties.
- Snorkeling: better not, with these waves, wind or current.
- Night dive: dark from 5:09 pm. Waning gibbous (88%), rising at 6:40 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 10:20 am to 11:40 am, combines slack water at low tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high, though with some swell.
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 226,480 mi away and looks 32′ 46″ 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
- 9:13–10:13 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 6:10–7:10 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.

- 33 ft deep1 mi
- 66 ft deep1.9 mi
- 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
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. Shallow near shore: you only reach 33 ft at 1 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, go by boat.
Rough estimate: here the data comes in cells of about 0.3 mi and misses details near shore (rocks, sandbars, small coves).
Source: NOAA ETOPO 2022 (CC0), cells of about 0.3 mi; depth below mean sea level. For reference only: not for navigation or anchoring.
