Where this tide comes from
Yotsutsuji has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Miyazu (JMA), 5.6 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.

Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 4:30 pm to 5:10 pm, combines slack water at high tide and light wind. Also worth a look from 10:00 am to 11:00 am, with slack water at low tide, light wind and the sun high, though with waves.
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.
