  • ▲ High tide 10:21 pm 10.8 ft · coef. 86

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 32 min to low tide at 4:50 pm.

Tide coefficient 91 for the 10:50 am high tide and 86 for the 10:21 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 12.0 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 August 13 (12.7 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 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 103, 12.2 ft range). The smallest, on October 19 (coefficient 24, 4.3 ft).

Where this tide comes from

B · Nearby station

Onoda has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Ube (TICON-4), 5.5 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 Onoda

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: calm (rippled)

Calm (rippled) Douglas 1 · light air, Beaufort 1
Waves 0.3 ft · 2.8 s from the east (89°)
Swell 0.3 ft · 2.0 s from the east
Current 0.2 mph toward the SE

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.2 ft
  • Significant0.3 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest0.6 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 0.6 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 0.6 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 1 mph NNE · gusts 7
Offshore (11 mi W)Offshore 2 mph NNE · gusts 11

Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces southwest and the wind comes off the land at an angle: calmer water near the shore, and bait and boats drift out to sea.

Waves build over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Monday 2: 1.9 ft with a period of 3 s, from the east-southeast (slight).

Water temperature

Water now71.2 °F
Today 70.9–71.2 °F air: 52 / 67 °F
Satellite (2 days ago) 73.9 °F measured 1.6 mi away

The satellite measured 2.7 °F more 2 days ago than the model gives now: the water is probably warmer than the forecast says.

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 69.0 °F by Wednesday 4.

Water about normal for late October.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 10:00 am to 11:50 am, combines slack water at high tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 4:00 pm to 5:30 pm, with slack water at low 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
  • 1:17–3:17 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:49–3:49 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 9:27–10:27 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:10–8:10 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.
