↓ Falling The tide is falling. 4 h 41 min to low tide at 4:46 am.
Tide coefficient 87 for the 11:03 am high tide and 85 for the 11:24 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 9.4 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 (10.7 ft) and the lowest, on December 27 (0.5 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)

Where this tide comes from
Tides from the Murrays Bay station (LINZ), 2.7 mi from Rosedale. 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.

Sea stateSea state: smooth
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common0.6 ft
- Significant1.1 ft
- Highest expectedHighest2.4 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 2.4 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 2.4 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
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.

Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Friday 30: 2.2 ft with a period of 3 s, from the west-southwest (slight).

Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 10:10 am to 12:00 pm, combines slack water at high tide, little swell, weak current and the sun high, though with fresh wind. Also worth a look from 4:50 pm to 5:50 pm, with slack water at low tide, little swell and weak current, though with strong 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.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,974 mi away and looks 32′ 42″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 3:20–5:20 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 3:52–5:52 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 8:28–9:28 am Minor · moonset · 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.
