Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.
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)

Where this tide comes from
Quatre Cocos has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Port Louis (TICON-4), 18 mi away. On the open coast the difference is usually a few minutes and inches; inside estuaries, rivers and enclosed bays it can be much larger.

The sea at Quatre Cocos
Sea stateSea state: moderate
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common2.6 ft
- Significant5.1 ft
- Highest expectedHighest10 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 10 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 10 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces east and the wind comes in from the sea at an angle: a bit more surf at the shore and drift along the coast, toward land.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves build over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Sunday 1: 6.2 ft with a period of 8 s, from the east (moderate).
Water temperature
Water temperature →Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water warms over the next few days: about 78.1 °F by Wednesday 4.
Water about normal for late October.

Surf in Quatre Cocos today
Surf today
Fair- 3.0–4.6 ft surf at the shore, a good size with some punch
- 4.4 ft swell at 6 s from the east, short: weak, messy waves
- Light onshore wind (10 mph): a bit of chop
- Falling tide (low tide at 9:04 pm)
- Light: First light 5:06 am · sunrise 5:29 am · sunset 6:17 pm · last light 6:40 pm
- Tide: high 2:41 am (2.2 ft), low 8:31 am (1.2 ft), high 2:13 pm (2.4 ft) and low 9:04 pm (0.5 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 76.5 °F: boardshorts or a swimsuit and a rash guard.
- Energy: 136 kJ · Medium power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 3:00 pm to 6:40 pm, has a good size, though with a short-period swell and onshore wind.
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.

- Water at 76.5 °F: a 3 mm wetsuit.
- Snorkeling: better not, with these waves, wind or current.
- Night dive: dark from 6:40 pm. Waning gibbous (86%), rising at 10:00 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 7:10 am to 9:40 am, combines slack water at low tide, light wind and weak current, though with some swell. Also worth a look from 1:50 pm to 2:40 pm, with slack water at high tide, light wind and the sun high, though with some swell and 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.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,557 mi away and looks 32′ 46″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:24–3:24 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:56–3:56 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 7:23–8:23 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 9:30–10:30 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.

- 66 ft deep0.35 mi
- 164 ft deep0.75 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 26 ft just 330 ft out. Good for casting from rocks, jetties or the beach itself; current and surf hit harder here.
- Swimming. The bottom drops quickly near the shore and you are soon out of your depth. Keep an eye on kids and weak swimmers.
- Diving. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 700 ft and 66 ft at 0.35 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).
