Tides in Pāvilosta
Today's high and low tides
- ▲ High tide 7:07 am 0.1 ft
- ▼ Low tide 11:32 pm -0.1 ft
↑ Rising The tide is rising. 8 h 5 min to high tide at 8:05 am.
In Pāvilosta the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.2 ft between high and low tide. Here the sea level is moved mostly by wind and air pressure (storm surge), which can raise or lower it more than the tide itself.
2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on January 17 (0.5 ft) and the lowest, on April 30 (-0.5 ft).
Heights above mean sea level. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. mean sea level

Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.1 ft
- Significant2.2 ft
- Highest expectedHighest4.5 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 4.5 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 4.5 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Offshore wind. The coast faces northwest 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 Tuesday 3: 7.1 ft with a period of 6 s, from the north (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 53.0 °F by Tuesday 3.
Water warmer than normal for late October (+2.8 °F).

Poor- 2.0–3.0 ft surf at the shore, a fun size for most surfers
- 3.7 ft swell at 5 s from the southwest, short: weak, messy waves
- Light offshore wind (8 mph): it holds up and grooms the waves
- First or last light of the day
- Light: First light 6:56 am · sunrise 7:36 am · sunset 5:01 pm · last light 5:41 pm
- Tide: We don’t have a reliable tide to show here.
- Water at 54.0 °F: a 5/4 fullsuit with booties (and a hood if it’s windy).
- Energy: 74 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 7:00 am to 11:00 am, has a good size and light offshore wind, though with a short-period swell. 3:00 pm to 5:41 pm can also work, with light offshore wind, though with a short-period swell.
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.

Likely visibility: fair- 3.1 ft swell at 5 s from the southwest: some surge on the bottom
- Light offshore wind (7 mph)
- 0.2 mph current toward the north-northeast, weak (model)
- Sun high: more light underwater
- Slack water today: none; the tide doesn't count here
- Likely visibility: fair. Swell (up to 5.2 ft at 6 s) over the last few days has stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 54.0 °F: a 7 mm semi-dry suit, with hood, gloves and booties.
- Snorkeling: better not, with these waves, wind or current.
- Night dive: dark from 5:41 pm. Waning gibbous (93%), rising at 5:13 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 11:30 am to 2:30 pm, combines light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also worth a look from 7:40 am to 8:20 am, with light wind and weak current, though with some swell.
In Pāvilosta the tide barely moves the water, so there's no slack to wait for: swell, wind and current are what count.

The moon in Pāvilosta
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,471 mi away and looks 32′ 46″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: high- 12:53–2:53 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:25–3:25 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 11:00 am–12:00 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 4:43–5:43 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.

For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.4 mi): cast far from the beach and fish the high tide, when there is more water close in.
- Swimming. A very gentle way in with plenty of shallow water, good for kids. At low tide the water can be far out.
- Diving. Shallow near shore: you only reach 33 ft at 0.9 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, go by boat.
