Today's high and low tides

  • ▼ Low tide 7:12 am 0.4 ft
  • ▲ High tide 12:56 pm 1.7 ft · coef. 89

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 2 h 57 min to low tide at 5:25 pm.

Tide coefficient 89 for the 12:56 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 1.3 ft between the highest high and the lowest low: an average 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 15 (3.9 ft) and the lowest, on December 25 (-0.2 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, 2.7 ft range). The smallest, on October 19 (coefficient 20, 1.2 ft).

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Hagi

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · moderate breeze, Beaufort 4
Waves 1.5 ft · 5.9 s from the north (360°)
Swell 1.2 ft · 4.8 s from the north
Current 0.2 mph toward the ENE

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.8 ft
  • Significant1.5 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest3.2 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 3.2 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 3.2 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 7 mph SW · gusts 25
Offshore (12 mi NW)Offshore 14 mph SW · gusts 23

Cross-shore wind. The coast faces northwest and the wind blows along the shore: drift and current run parallel to the beach.

Cross-shore Hourly wind →

Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days

Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Saturday 31: 3.0 ft with a period of 5 s, from the northwest (slight).

Water temperature

Water now73.9 °F
Today 73.9–73.9 °F air: 48 / 69 °F
Satellite (2 days ago) 74.7 °F measured 2.1 mi away

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 (+3.6 °F).

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 12:10 pm to 3:00 pm, combines slack water at high tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 4:20 pm to 5:20 pm, with slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind and weak current. Also good from 6:50 am to 7:40 am, with slack water at low 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.

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
  • 1:16–3:16 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:48–3:48 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 9:28–10:28 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:07–8:07 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.
