↓ Falling The tide is falling. 3 h 13 min to low tide at 3:53 am.

Tide coefficient 74 for the 10:40 am high tide and 72 for the 10:47 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 4.8 ft between the highest high and the lowest low: an average 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 28 (7.4 ft) and the lowest, on March 22 (0.4 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 9 to 11 (coefficient 85, 6.2 ft range). The smallest, from October 20 to 21 (coefficient 51, 3.3 ft).

Where this tide comes from

B · Nearby station

Stroe has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Oudeschild (TICON-4), 9.3 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 and waves

The sea at Stroe

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: slight

Slight Douglas 3 · gentle breeze, Beaufort 3
Waves 2.4 ft · 4.5 s from the west (260°)
Swell 1.8 ft · 4.0 s from the west-southwest
Current 0.2 mph toward the NW

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common1.2 ft
  • Significant2.4 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest5.0 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 5.0 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 5.0 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 6 mph SW · gusts 9
Offshore (5.2 mi NNE)Offshore 10 mph WSW · gusts 14

Offshore wind. The coast faces northeast and the wind blows from land out to sea: calm shore and clean waves, but watch the drift out to sea.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+1.8 °F).

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 8:20 am to 11:20 am, combines slack water at high tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 3:40 pm to 4:30 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.

Never dive alone and check with the local dive shop: this rating is a guide, not a substitute for a professional.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 2:04–4:04 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:37–4:37 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 11:53 am–12:53 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 6:20–7:20 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

Very shallow

Very shallow and flat: 3.1 mi from shore the water is still only about 3.9 ft deep.

From the shoreline (0.4 mi from Stroe) out to sea, heading northeast.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep2.3 mi
  • 33 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
  • 66 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 2.3 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: the water doesn't reach 33 ft within 3.1 mi. For deeper dives, take a boat farther out.

Inside bays, estuaries and harbors the bottom changes a lot from spot to spot (channels and shoals): use this only as a rough guide. Where the bottom comes up to the surface there are shoals, rocks or an islet next to the profile.
