Today's high and low tides

  • ▲ High tide 8:34 am 5.2 ft · coef. 107
  • ▼ Low tide 5:46 pm 1.4 ft

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 12 h 14 min to high tide at 8:39 am.

Tide coefficient 107 for the 8:34 am high tide. Big spring tides. The water rises and falls 3.8 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 July 13 (5.7 ft) and the lowest, on January 2 (0.1 ft).

Mixed, mainly diurnal: on many days there is only one high and one low tide.

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 come from October 29 to 30 (coefficient 110, 3.7 ft range). The smallest, on October 8 (coefficient 20, 2.1 ft).

Sea and waves

The waves you may find

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 2.6 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 2.6 ft.

Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces southeast and the wind comes off the land at an angle: calmer water near the shore, and bait and boats drift out to sea.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 7:50 am to 9:40 am, combines slack water at high tide, light wind and weak current. Also good from 5:00 pm to 6:10 pm, with slack water at low tide, little swell, 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.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 1:05–3:05 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:36–3:36 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 8:54–9:54 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:16–8:16 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.
