Tides in Bardia
Today's high and low tides
- ▼ Next low tide 6:09 am -0.2 ft
- ▲ High tide 12:04 pm 0.1 ft
- ▼ Low tide 5:43 pm -0.1 ft
↓ Falling The tide is falling. 5 h 21 min to low tide at 6:09 am.
In Bardia 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 February 18 (0.3 ft) and the lowest, on February 2 (-0.2 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

Where this tide comes from
Tides from the FES2022 station (AVISO/CNES), 1.1 mi from Bardia. Times and heights are its predictions.
Station data attribution: FES2022 Tide was produced by LEGOS, NOVELTIS and CLS, funded by CNES, and distributed by AVISO (https://doi.org/10.24400/527896/a01-2024.004), AVISO licence (https://www.aviso.altimetry.fr/fileadmin/documents/data/License_Aviso.pdf).

The sea at Bardia
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.4 ft
- Significant2.7 ft
- Highest expectedHighest5.6 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 5.6 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 5.6 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces northeast and the wind comes off the land at an angle: calmer water near the shore, and bait and boats drift out to sea.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves ease over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Thursday 29: 3.6 ft with a period of 6 s, from the north-northwest (slight).
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 74.0 °F by Wednesday 4.
Water about normal for late October.

Surf in Bardia today
Surf today
Fair- 1.8–2.8 ft surf at the shore, a fun size for most surfers
- 2.9 ft swell at 6 s from the north-northwest, short: weak, messy waves
- Moderate offshore wind (13 mph): it holds up and grooms the waves
- Light: First light 6:08 am · sunrise 6:33 am · sunset 5:33 pm · last light 5:58 pm
- Tide: We don’t have a reliable tide to show here.
- Water at 74.8 °F: a rash guard or a neoprene top.
- Energy: 63 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 9:00 am to 1:00 pm, has a good size and light offshore wind, though with a short-period swell. 7:00 am to 8:00 am 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.
Diving in Bardia today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: good- 2.9 ft swell at 6 s from the north-northwest: some surge on the bottom
- Moderate offshore wind (15 mph): it pushes surface swimmers away from shore
- 0.2 mph current toward the south-southeast, weak (model)
- Sun high: more light underwater
- Slack water today: none; the tide doesn't count here
- Likely visibility: good. Swell (up to 2.9 ft at 6 s) over the last few days has stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 74.8 °F: a 3 mm wetsuit.
- Snorkeling: better not, with these waves, wind or current.
- Night dive: dark from 5:58 pm. Waning gibbous (86%), rising at 8:10 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 12:00 pm to 3:00 pm, combines weak current and the sun high, though with moderate wind.
In Bardia the tide barely moves the water, so there's no slack to wait for: swell, wind and current are what count.
Never dive alone and check with the local dive shop: this rating is a guide, not a substitute for a professional.

The moon in Bardia
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,597 mi away and looks 32′ 45″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:40–3:40 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:13–4:13 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 9:45–10:45 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 7:40–8:40 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 0.25 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. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 0.4 mi and 66 ft at 0.65 mi from shore.
Rough estimate: here the data comes in cells of about 0.3 mi and misses details near shore (rocks, sandbars, small coves).
Source: EMODnet Bathymetry DTM 2024, here using the GEBCO grid (CC BY 4.0), cells of about 0.3 mi; depth at the lowest astronomical tide. For reference only: not for navigation or anchoring.
