The best window, 1:30 pm to 2:30 pm, combines the 1:31 pm low tide, a major period and a light onshore breeze, though with rising pressure. Also worth a try from 12:50 am to 2:20 am, with the 1:20 am low tide, a major period and some swell, though with rising pressure. Also good from 6:40 pm to 7:40 pm, with the 7:06 pm high tide and moonrise.

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 1 h 10 min to high tide at 8:00 am.

Tide coefficient 92 for the 8:00 am high tide and 86 for the 7:06 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 7.7 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 28 (8.2 ft) and the lowest, on December 25 (-1.2 ft).

Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.

Heights above chart datum (CD), the zero of that port's nautical charts. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. chart datum (CD)

Tide coefficient and range in October

The biggest tides of the month came from October 26 to 27 (coefficient 107, 8.0 ft range). The smallest, on October 19 (coefficient 22, 2.6 ft).

Where this tide comes from

B · Nearby station

Tsu has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Yokkaichi Port (JMA), 17 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.

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Tsu

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · gentle breeze, Beaufort 3

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.6 ft

  • Highest expectedHighest2.5 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 2.5 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 2.5 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

Offshore wind. The coast faces east and the wind blows from land out to sea: calm shore and clean waves, but watch the drift out to sea.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 12:20 pm to 2:40 pm, combines slack water at low tide, small waves, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 7:20 am to 8:50 am, with slack water at high tide, small waves, 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.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 12:55–2:55 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:27–3:27 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 9:08–10:08 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 6:45–7:45 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.
