- ▲ High tide 1:20 pm 12.1 ft · coef. 84
- ▼ Next low tide 7:25 pm 4.5 ft
↓ Falling The tide is falling. 4 h 54 min to low tide at 7:25 pm.
Tide coefficient 84 for the 1:20 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 11.6 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 July 14 (12.7 ft) and the lowest, on December 25 (-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 9 to 11 (coefficient 93, 10.7 ft range). The smallest, on October 19 (coefficient 36, 5.9 ft).

The sea at Marugame
Sea stateSea state: calm (rippled)
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common0.1 ft
- Significant0.3 ft
- Highest expectedHighest0.6 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 0.6 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 0.6 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces northwest 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 build over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Saturday 31: 1.4 ft with a period of 3 s, from the west (smooth).
Water temperature
Water temperature →The satellite measured 3.1 °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 69.7 °F by Wednesday 4.
Water warmer than normal for late October (+2.2 °F).

Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 12:10 pm to 2:20 pm, combines slack water at high tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 6:20 am to 7:20 am, with slack water at low 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.

The moon in Marugame
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,480 mi away and looks 32′ 46″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:06–3:06 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:38–3:38 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 9:17–10:17 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 6:58–7:58 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.
