Your day at a glance

The best window, 9:00 pm to 11:00 pm, combines the 10:02 pm low tide, falling pressure, a light onshore breeze and some swell. Also worth a try from 6:00 pm to 7:10 pm, with the 6:59 pm high tide, moonrise and some swell, though with moderate wind. Also good from 2:30 pm to 3:10 pm, with a major period, a light onshore breeze and some swell.

  • ▼ Low tide 10:02 pm 1.1 ft

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 3 h 34 min to high tide at 6:59 pm.

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.

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

B · Nearby station

Tennō has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Funagawa Port (JMA), 6.3 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.

Sea and waves

The sea at Tennō

Waves 3.1 ft · 5.7 s from the west (267°)

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common1.5 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 6.3 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 6.3 ft.

Offshore (11 mi S)Offshore 11 mph SSE · gusts 22

Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces southwest 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.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+2.7 °F).

Today’s surf at a glance

The best window, 6:00 am to 10:00 am, has a good size and 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, 10:30 am to 12:00 pm, 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.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 12:40–2:40 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity

  • 9:12–10:12 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 6:11–7:11 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

Shallow, gradual

Shallow, gradual bottom: you need to go 1.4 mi out for 33 ft of water.

From the shoreline (1.1 mi from Tennō) out to sea, heading southwest.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep0.45 mi
  • 33 ft deep1.4 mi
  • 66 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.45 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 1.4 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.
