Today's high and low tides
- ▲ High tide 5:34 am 9.9 ft · coef. 95
- ▼ Low tide 12:10 pm 1.6 ft
- ▲ Next high tide 6:24 pm 9.0 ft · coef. 90
↑ Rising The tide is rising. 4 h 0 min to high tide at 6:24 pm.
Tide coefficient 95 for the 5:34 am high tide and 90 for the 6:24 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 8.3 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 October 27 (10.5 ft) and the lowest, on February 3 (0.5 ft).
Semidiurnal: two high and two low tides a day, of similar height.
Heights above chart datum: the lowest astronomical tide (LAT), the zero of nautical charts in Europe. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. chart datum (LAT)
Tide coefficient and range in October
The biggest tides of the month came from October 26 to 28 (coefficient 104, 8.9 ft range). The smallest, from October 19 to 20 (coefficient 23, 2.5 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Tides from the Lumut station (TICON-4), 3.2 mi from Pangkor. Times and heights are its predictions.

The sea at Pangkor
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.1 ft
- Significant2.1 ft
- Highest expectedHighest4.4 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 4.4 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 4.4 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-shore wind. The coast faces southwest and the wind blows along the shore: drift and current run parallel to the beach.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Thursday 29: 2.4 ft with a period of 5 s, from the northwest (slight).
Water temperature
Water temperature →The satellite measured 3.4 °F less 2 days ago than the model gives now: the water is probably colder than the forecast says.
Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water is steady these days, with no sudden changes.
Water warmer than normal for late October (+3.3 °F).

Surf in Pangkor today
Surf today
Poor- 1.2–1.9 ft surf at the shore, small: good for learning or a longboard
- 2.0 ft swell at 5 s from the northwest, short: weak, messy waves
- Light offshore wind (6 mph): it holds up and grooms the waves
- Rising tide (high tide at 6:24 pm)
- Light: First light 6:41 am · sunrise 7:02 am · sunset 7:01 pm · last light 7:22 pm
- Tide: high 5:34 am (9.9 ft), low 12:10 pm (1.6 ft) and high 6:24 pm (9.0 ft). Every break has its own tide: some work at low tide and others at high tide. The tide doesn’t change the score here.
- Water at 86.4 °F–88.5 °F: boardshorts or a swimsuit and a rash guard.
- Energy: 18 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm, has light offshore wind, though with a short-period swell. 7:00 am to 11:00 am can also work, with light offshore wind, though with small waves, a short-period swell and thunderstorms.
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 Pangkor today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: fair- Slack water around high tide (6:24 pm): little current from 6:00 pm to 6:50 pm
- 2.1 ft swell at 5 s from the northwest: some surge on the bottom
- Light offshore wind (6 mph)
- 0.3 mph current toward the south, weak (model)
- Daylight
- Slack water today: high tide 5:34 am (5:10–6:00 am), low tide 12:10 pm (11:50 am–12:30 pm) and high tide 6:24 pm (6:00–6:50 pm)
- Likely visibility: fair. Swell (up to 2.6 ft at 6 s) and rain (0.99 in) over the last few days have stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 86.4–88.5 °F: a shorty or a rash guard.
- Snorkeling: doable, with some waves or wind.
- Night dive: dark from 7:22 pm. Waning gibbous (88%), rising at 10:05 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 5:30 pm to 7:00 pm, combines slack water at high tide, 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.

The moon in Pangkor
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,493 mi away and looks 32′ 46″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 2:25–4:25 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:57–4:57 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 9:19–10:19 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 9:35–10:35 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.

- 33 ft deep0.45 mi
- 66 ft deep1.8 mi
- 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
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. 33 ft deep 0.45 mi from shore; 66 ft is far out (1.8 mi): for deeper dives, go by boat.
Rough estimate: here the data comes in cells of about 0.3 mi and misses details near shore (rocks, sandbars, small coves). The profile is turned slightly from the coast so it does not run into an island or a headland.
