↓ Falling The tide is falling. 1 h 46 min to low tide at 2:51 am.

Tide coefficient 74 for the 9:13 am high tide and 62 for the 11:54 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 4.7 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 December 24 (3.0 ft) and the lowest, on December 24 (-3.4 ft).

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

Where this tide comes from

M · Global model

La Ribera has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global FES2022 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 2.7 mi away). It may differ from the real tide by a few minutes and inches, and more with wind or storms. Heights are above mean sea level, not chart datum, so low tides are negative. Not for navigation.

Model 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.

Sea and waves

The sea at La Ribera

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: slight

Slight Douglas 3 · light breeze, Beaufort 2
Waves 3.1 ft · 7.0 s from the southeast (128°)
Swell 2.5 ft · 6.8 s from the southeast
Current 0.6 mph toward the NW

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common1.6 ft
  • Significant3.1 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest6.4 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 6.4 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 6.4 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 4 mph NNE · gusts 6
Offshore (12 mi NNE)Offshore 5 mph ENE · gusts 9

Onshore wind. The coast faces northeast and the wind blows straight in from the sea: more surf and backwash at the shore, and bait and boats drift toward land.

Today’s surf at a glance

The best window, 6:00 am to 10:00 am, has a good size, though with a short-period swell. 2:00 pm to 6:00 pm can also work, with a good size, 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.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 8:30 am to 10:10 am, combines slack water at high tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high, though with some swell. Also worth a look from 4:10 pm to 5:40 pm, with slack water at low tide, light wind and weak current, though with some swell.

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.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 2:03–4:03 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:36–4:36 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 9:44–10:44 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 8:27–9:27 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 0.75 mi from shore and 33 ft at 0.9 mi. It reaches 164 ft at 1.4 mi.

From the shoreline (0.65 mi from La Ribera) out to sea, heading northeast.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep0.75 mi
  • 33 ft deep0.9 mi
  • 66 ft deep1 mi
  • 164 ft deep1.4 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.75 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. Shallow near shore: you only reach 33 ft at 0.9 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, 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).

Source: NOAA ETOPO 2022 (CC0), cells of about 0.3 mi; depth below mean sea level. For reference only: not for navigation or anchoring.
