Tides in Nanao
Today's high and low tides
- ▲ High tide 3:06 am 1.4 ft · coef. 95
- ▼ Low tide 10:57 am 0.2 ft
- ▲ Next high tide 6:20 pm 1.1 ft · coef. 90
- ▼ Low tide 9:38 pm 1.0 ft
↑ Rising The tide is rising. 5 h 28 min to high tide at 6:20 pm.
Tide coefficient 95 for the 3:06 am high tide and 90 for the 6:20 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 1.2 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 12 (1.7 ft) and the lowest, on March 22 (-0.5 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 27 to 28 (coefficient 100, 1.1 ft range). The smallest, on October 19 (coefficient 23, 0.6 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Tides from the Nanao station (TICON-4), 0.1 mi from Nanao. Times and heights are its predictions.

The sea at Nanao
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.4 ft
- Significant2.7 ft
- Highest expectedHighest5.5 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 5.5 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 5.5 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces north 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 Thursday 29: 5.4 ft with a period of 8 s, from the northwest (moderate).
Water temperature
Water temperature →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 70.3 °F by Wednesday 4.
Water warmer than normal for late October (+2.0 °F).

Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 10:30 am to 11:40 am, combines slack water at low 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.

The moon in Nanao
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,480 mi away and looks 32′ 46″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 12:53–2:53 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:25–3:25 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 9:14–10:14 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 6:35–7:35 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.
