Tides in Cuyutlán
Today's high and low tides
- ▼ Low tide 2:49 am 2.7 ft
- ▲ High tide 8:57 am 4.2 ft · coef. 74
- ▼ Next low tide 4:44 pm 1.2 ft
↓ Falling The tide is falling. 55 min to low tide at 4:44 pm.
Tide coefficient 74 for the 8:57 am high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 3.0 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 August 11 (4.8 ft) and the lowest, on January 31 (0.2 ft).
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)
Tide coefficient and range in October
The biggest tides of the month came from October 7 to 9 (coefficient 108, 2.8 ft range). The smallest, on October 31 (coefficient 20, 2.0 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Cuyutlán has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Manzanillo (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.

Sea stateSea state: moderate
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common2.3 ft
- Significant4.7 ft
- Highest expectedHighest9.3 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 9.3 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 9.3 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Offshore wind. The coast faces southwest and the wind blows from land out to sea: calm shore and clean waves, but watch the drift out to sea.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Saturday 31: 5.3 ft with a period of 12 s, from the southwest (moderate).
Water temperature

Surf in Cuyutlán today
Surf today
Very good- 3.1–4.8 ft surf at the shore, a good size with some punch
- 3.0 ft swell at 15 s from the south-southwest, long-period and powerful
- Almost no wind (4 mph): glassy water
- Falling tide (low tide at 4:44 pm)
- Light: First light 6:33 am · sunrise 6:55 am · sunset 6:25 pm · last light 6:47 pm
- Tide: low 2:49 am (2.7 ft), high 8:57 am (4.2 ft) and low 4:44 pm (1.2 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 85.1 °F: boardshorts or a swimsuit and a rash guard.
- Energy: 354 kJ · Medium power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 12:00 pm to 4:00 pm, has a good size, a clean swell and glassy water.
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 Cuyutlán today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: poor- Slack water around low tide (4:44 pm): little current from 4:20 pm to 5:10 pm
- 3.3 ft swell at 7 s from the south: some surge on the bottom
- Almost no wind
- 0.1 mph current toward the north, weak (model)

- Slack water today: low tide 2:49 am (2:10–3:20 am), high tide 8:57 am (8:30–9:20 am), low tide 4:44 pm (4:20–5:10 pm) and high tide 12:09 am (11:20 pm–1:13 am)
- Likely visibility: poor. Swell (up to 5.6 ft at 7 s) and rain (0.24 in) over the last few days have stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 85.1 °F: a shorty or a rash guard.
- Snorkeling: better not, with these waves, wind or current.
- Night dive: dark from 6:47 pm. Waning gibbous (91%), rising at 8:42 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 3:50 pm to 5:50 pm, combines slack water at low tide, light wind and weak current, though with some swell. Also worth a look from 7:50 am to 10:10 am, with slack water at high tide, light wind and weak current, though with waves.
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.
Never dive alone and check with the local dive shop: this rating is a guide, not a substitute for a professional.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,426 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:36–3:36 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:08–4:08 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 9:02–10:02 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 8:12–9:12 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 deep0.85 mi
- 164 ft deep1.9 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.45 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. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 0.55 mi and 66 ft at 0.85 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).
