↑ Rising The tide is rising. 3 h 8 min to high tide at 5:32 am.

In Zliten the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.8 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 April 17 (0.6 ft) and the lowest, on April 18 (-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

Where this tide comes from

No significant tide

Tides from the FES2022 station (AVISO/CNES), 2.9 mi from Zliten. 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). Modified by TidePlanet: constants interpolated from the nearest model cells offshore; heights above mean sea level.

The best window, 3:10 pm to 6:10 pm, combines light wind and weak current. Also worth a look from 7:20 am to 8:50 am, with light wind and weak current, though with waves.

In Zliten the tide barely moves the water, so there's no slack to wait for: swell, wind and current are what count.
