Today's high and low tides
- ▼ Low tide 1:06 am 0.1 ft
- ▲ Next high tide 7:58 am 5.6 ft · coef. 92
- ▼ Low tide 1:16 pm 3.2 ft
- ▲ High tide 6:46 pm 5.7 ft · coef. 86
↑ Rising The tide is rising. 9 min to high tide at 7:58 am.
Tide coefficient 92 for the 7:58 am high tide and 86 for the 6:46 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 5.6 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 September 12 (6.1 ft) and the lowest, on December 25 (-0.8 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 26 to 27 (coefficient 106, 5.5 ft range). The smallest, from October 18 to 19 (coefficient 24, 2.4 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Shimo-ichigi has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Kumano (TICON-4), 9.4 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 Shimo-ichigi
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.2 ft
- Significant2.5 ft
- Highest expectedHighest5.0 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 5.0 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 5.0 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Offshore wind. The coast faces southeast and the wind blows from land out to sea: calm shore and clean waves, but watch the drift out to sea.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves build over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Monday 2: 7.2 ft with a period of 9 s, from the south-southeast (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 73.3 °F by Wednesday 4.
Water warmer than normal for late October (+1.4 °F).

Surf in Shimo-ichigi today
Surf today
Fair- 1.8–2.7 ft surf at the shore, a fun size for most surfers
- 1.9 ft swell at 9 s from the east-southeast, a bit short
- Light offshore wind (5 mph): it holds up and grooms the waves
- Rising tide (high tide at 7:58 am)
- Light: First light 5:46 am · sunrise 6:12 am · sunset 5:07 pm · last light 5:32 pm
- Tide: low 1:06 am (0.1 ft), high 7:58 am (5.6 ft), low 1:16 pm (3.2 ft) and high 6:46 pm (5.7 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 74.3 °F: a rash guard or a neoprene top.
- Energy: 56 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 6:00 am to 10:00 am, has a good size and light offshore wind.
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, 12:00 pm to 2:30 pm, combines slack water at low tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 7:20 am to 9:00 am, with slack water at high tide, 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.

The moon in Shimo-ichigi
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,480 mi away and looks 32′ 46″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 12:57–2:57 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:29–3:29 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 9:06–10:06 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 6:50–7:50 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
Drops off fastThe bottom drops off fast: the water is 33 ft deep just 500 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 2.3 mi.
From the shoreline (0.45 mi from Shimo-ichigi) out to sea, heading southeast.
How far from shore
- 16 ft deep230 ft
- 33 ft deep500 ft
- 66 ft deep0.6 mi
- 164 ft deep2.3 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 23 ft just 330 ft out. Good for casting from rocks, jetties or the beach itself; current and surf hit harder here.
- Swimming. The bottom drops quickly near the shore and you are soon out of your depth. Keep an eye on kids and weak swimmers.
- Diving. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 500 ft and 66 ft at 0.6 mi from shore.
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.
