Your day at a glance

The best window, 3:10 am to 4:20 am, combines the 4:05 am low tide, a major period and falling pressure. Also worth a try from 3:30 pm to 4:50 pm, with the 4:30 pm low tide, a major period and falling pressure, though with fresh wind and rough seas.

Species with the most records nearby: Australasian snapper, John Dory, tope shark and yellowtail amberjack. October is one of the months when these are seen most: tope shark. What you can catch

  • ▲ High tide 10:53 pm 11.6 ft · coef. 88

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 5 h 33 min to low tide at 4:30 pm.

Tide coefficient 89 for the 10:35 am high tide and 88 for the 10:53 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 10.6 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 16 (12.6 ft) and the lowest, on December 27 (1.2 ft).

Semidiurnal: two high and two low tides a day, of similar height.

Heights above chart datum (CD), the zero of that port's nautical charts. 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 (CD)

Tide coefficient and range in October

The biggest tides of the month came from October 28 to 30 (coefficient 89, 10.5 ft range). The smallest, from October 20 to 21 (coefficient 47, 5.5 ft).

Where this tide comes from

A · Official station

Tides from the Whau River Entrance station (LINZ), 1.6 mi from Glendene. Times and heights are its predictions. It is a NOAA subordinate station: its times and heights come from the Auckland reference station with the official corrections.

Station data attribution: This work is based on Toitū Te Whenua Land Information New Zealand data which are licensed by Toitū Te Whenua Land Information New Zealand for re-use under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International licence (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/). Modified: secondary port of the LINZ Secondary Ports table 2026-27 (https://www.linz.govt.nz/products-services/tides-and-tidal-streams/tide-predictions), computed by TidePlanet with the LINZ method from the harmonic constants of Auckland in the Slackwater database (https://github.com/openwatersio/slackwater-database).

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Glendene

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: moderate

Moderate Douglas 4 · moderate breeze, Beaufort 4
Waves 7.9 ft · 7.9 s from the west-southwest (258°)
Swell 4.7 ft · 7.4 s from the west-southwest
Current 0.2 mph toward the SSE

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common3.9 ft
  • Significant7.9 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest16 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 16 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 16 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 20 mph W · gusts 33
Offshore (9.8 mi SE)Offshore 16 mph W · gusts 23

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

Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days

Waves build over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Saturday 31: 16 ft with a period of 11 s, from the southwest (very rough).

Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water is steady these days, with no sudden changes.

Water about normal for late October.

Poor day · 2 out of 10 9:50–11:20 am Also 3:40–5:10 pm
  • Slack water around high tide (10:35 am): little current from 10:10 am to 10:50 am
  • 4.7 ft swell at 7 s from the west-southwest: strong surge on the bottom
  • Fresh offshore wind (20 mph): it pushes surface swimmers away from shore
  • 0.2 mph current toward the south-southeast, weak (model)
  • Sun high: more light underwater

Not a day for shore diving: swell, wind, current or storms during the best window. If you go, go with a dive shop and only if they give the OK.

  • Water at 62.1 °F: a 7 mm wetsuit, with hood and booties.
  • Snorkeling: better not, with these waves, wind or current.
  • Night dive: dark from 8:18 pm. Waning gibbous (89%), rising at 11:42 pm: a bright night.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 9:50 am to 11:20 am, combines slack water at high tide, weak current and the sun high, though with some swell and fresh wind. Also worth a look from 3:40 pm to 5:10 pm, with slack water at low tide and weak current, though with some swell and fresh wind.

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
  • 2:16–4:16 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:48–4:48 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 7:27–8:27 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 11:12 pm–12:12 am 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.
