8.5 ft waves every 11 s: dangerous for swimming. Stay out if the red flag is up. High rip current risk. If you're caught in a rip current, don't swim against it: swim parallel to shore and wave for help. Always follow the lifeguard's flags.

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

The sea at Bleik
Sea stateSea state: rough
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common4.7 ft
- Significant9.3 ft
- Highest expectedHighest18 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 18 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 18 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.
Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces northwest 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 stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Monday 2: 10 ft with a period of 9 s, from the west-northwest (rough).
Water temperature
Water temperature →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 warmer than normal for late October (+1.6 °F).

Surf in Bleik today
Surf today
Good- 4.7–7.3 ft surf at the shore, a good size with some punch
- Big surf (7.3 ft): for experienced surfers
- 7.6 ft swell at 9 s from the west-southwest, a bit short
- Moderate offshore wind (18 mph): it holds up and grooms the waves
- Rising tide (high tide at 2:33 pm)
Big surf: for experienced surfers only. If in doubt, stay on the beach.
- Light: First light 6:57 am · sunrise 8:05 am · sunset 3:14 pm · last light 4:22 pm
- Tide: high 2:12 am (7.8 ft), low 8:25 am (1.7 ft), high 2:33 pm (7.8 ft) and low 8:51 pm (1.8 ft). Every break has its own tide: some work at low tide and others at high tide. The tide doesn’t change the score here.
- Water at 47.5 °F: a 6/5 hooded fullsuit with booties and gloves.
- Energy: 940 kJ · High power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 10:00 am to 2:00 pm, has a good size and light offshore wind, though with big surf.
An estimate for this stretch of coast, not for a specific break: every beach or reef works its own way (its tide, bottom and angle). Check it when you get there.
Follow the flags and the lifeguards, and don’t paddle out if the surf is above your level: this score is a guide, not a substitute for what you see when you get there.
Diving in Bleik today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: poor- Slack water around low tide (8:25 am): little current from 8:00 am to 8:50 am
- 8.0 ft swell at 9 s from the west-southwest: heavy surge on the bottom
- Fresh offshore wind (20 mph): it pushes surface swimmers away from shore
- 1.4 mph current toward the northeast, strong (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.
- Slack water today: high tide 2:12 am (1:50–2:30 am), low tide 8:25 am (8:00–8:50 am), high tide 2:33 pm (2:10–2:50 pm) and low tide 8:51 pm (8:30–9:10 pm)
- Likely visibility: poor. Swell (up to 8.7 ft at 10 s) over the last few days has stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 47.5 °F: a drysuit, with hood, gloves and booties.
- Snorkeling: better not, with these waves, wind or current.
- Night dive: dark from 4:22 pm. Waning gibbous (85%): a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 7:00 am to 10:00 am, combines slack water at low tide and the sun high, though with a big swell, fresh wind and 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.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,618 mi away and looks 32′ 45″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: high- 1:19–3:19 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:51–3:51 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high 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, gradualShallow, gradual bottom: you need to go 1.2 mi out for 33 ft of water.
From the shoreline (550 ft from Bleik) out to sea, heading northwest.

- 16 ft deep0.3 mi
- 33 ft deep1.2 mi
- 66 ft deep1.5 mi
- 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.3 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 near shore: you only reach 33 ft at 1.2 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, go by boat.
Where the bottom comes up to the surface there are shoals, rocks or an islet next to the profile.
