Tides

Tides in Nida

Today's high and low tides

  • ▲ High tide 2:51 am 0.2 ft
  • ▼ Low tide 8:49 am 0.1 ft
  • ▲ High tide 3:51 pm 0.3 ft
  • ▼ Low tide 10:11 pm 0.1 ft

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 4 h 42 min to high tide at 3:32 am.

In Nida 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 December 26 (0.4 ft) and the lowest, on April 19 (-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 Władysławowo station (TICON-4), 108 mi from Nida. Times and heights are its predictions.

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Nida

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · moderate breeze, Beaufort 4
Waves 1.4 ft · 2.9 s from the south-southwest (197°)
Swell 0.5 ft · 3.1 s from the southwest
Current 0.2 mph toward the NNE

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.7 ft
  • Significant1.4 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest3.0 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 3.0 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 3.0 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 8 mph SSW · gusts 15

The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.

Cross-shore wind. The coast faces west 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 build over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Tuesday 3: 5.0 ft with a period of 5 s, from the north-northwest (moderate).

Water temperature

Water temperature →
Water now52.2 °F
Today 52.2–52.5 °F air: 42 / 48 °F
Satellite (yesterday) 56.3 °F measured 0.7 mi away

The satellite measured 4.1 °F more yesterday 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 51.0 °F by Tuesday 3.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+5.2 °F).

Today’s surf at a glance

The best window, 12:00 pm to 4:00 pm, has light offshore wind, though with barely any waves.

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.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 9:20 am to 12:20 pm, combines little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high.

In Nida 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.

Today the moon is 226,471 mi away and looks 32′ 46″ across.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: high
  • 12:54–2:54 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:25–3:25 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 10:45–11:45 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 4:59–5:59 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.

Water depth

Gentle slope

The bottom slopes gently: 16 ft deep 1,300 ft from shore and 33 ft at 0.65 mi.

From the shoreline (0.65 mi from Nida) out to sea, heading west.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep1,300 ft
  • 33 ft deep0.65 mi
  • 66 ft deep1.3 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. About 9.5 ft of water 330 ft out: long casts help, and so does a rising tide, which brings fish closer in.
  • Swimming. The water gets deeper little by little, but a few dozen yards out you can no longer stand.
  • Diving. Shallow near shore: you only reach 33 ft at 0.65 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, go by boat.
