Your day at a glance

The best window, 1:20 pm to 2:00 pm, combines the 1:04 pm low tide and a major period, though with rising pressure. Also worth a try from 12:40 am to 1:50 am, with the 12:46 am low tide and a major period, though with rising pressure. Also worth a try from 6:30 pm to 7:30 pm, with the 6:31 pm high tide and moonrise, though with rising pressure.

Species with the most records nearby: striped mullet, Japanese seabass, blackhead seabream and red seabream. October is one of the months when these are seen most: blackhead seabream. What you can catch

Tide coefficient 94 for the 7:39 am high tide and 88 for the 6:31 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 5.4 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 (5.7 ft) and the lowest, on December 24 (-0.6 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 108, 5.3 ft range). The smallest, on October 19 (coefficient 24, 2.3 ft).

Where this tide comes from

B · Nearby station

Numazu has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Uchiura (TICON-4), 5.9 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 Numazu

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · light breeze, Beaufort 2
Waves 0.7 ft · 6.5 s from the south (174°)
Swell 0.6 ft · 4.9 s from the south
Current 0.2 mph toward the NNW

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.3 ft
  • Significant0.7 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest1.3 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 1.3 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 1.3 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 2 mph SSE · gusts 6
Offshore (9.6 mi SW)Offshore 6 mph E · gusts 11

Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces southwest 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.

Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water is steady these days, with no sudden changes.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+2.0 °F).

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 11:50 am to 2:20 pm, combines slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 7:00 am to 8:20 am, with slack water at high 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.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 12:45–2:45 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:17–3:17 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 8:59–9:59 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 6:34–7:34 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.
