The best window, 4:40 pm to 6:00 pm, combines the 5:05 pm high tide, moonrise and sunset, though with rising pressure. Also worth a try from 10:30 am to 11:30 am, with the 10:40 am low tide and moonset, though with rising pressure.

  • ▲ High tide 5:05 pm 13.5 ft · coef. 79

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 10 min to low tide at 11:02 pm.

Tide coefficient 80 for the 4:48 am high tide and 79 for the 5:05 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 11.9 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 October 10 (13.6 ft) and the lowest, on February 22 (0.3 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, 12.8 ft range). The smallest, from October 20 to 21 (coefficient 50, 7.3 ft).

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 10:00 am to 1:00 pm, combines slack water at low tide, small waves, light wind, weak current and the sun high.

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: high
  • 1:05–3:05 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:36–3:36 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 10:28–11:28 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 5:39–6:39 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

Shallow, gradual

Shallow, gradual bottom: you need to go 3.1 mi out for 33 ft of water.

From the shoreline (1,100 ft from Yerseke) out to sea, heading northeast.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep1.8 mi
  • 33 ft deep3.1 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 1.8 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 3.1 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, go by boat.

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.
