Tide coefficient 95 for the 2:14 am high tide and 91 for the 2:36 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 6.5 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 December 26 (8.7 ft) and the lowest, on August 14 (0.5 ft).

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

Tide coefficient and range in October

The biggest tides of the month came from October 27 to 28 (coefficient 99, 7.0 ft range). The smallest, on October 19 (coefficient 30, 2.3 ft).

Waves 0.7 ft · 2.3 s from the south (182°)

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 1.6 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 1.6 ft.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 8:00 am to 9:20 am, combines slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind and weak current. Also good from 1:40 pm to 3:20 pm, with slack water at high tide, little swell, 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.

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

Deepens quickly

The bottom deepens quickly: 33 ft of water 1,250 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 2.6 mi.

From the shoreline out to sea, heading northeast.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep750 ft
  • 33 ft deep1,250 ft
  • 66 ft deep0.3 mi
  • 164 ft deep2.6 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. 33 ft of water just 1,250 ft from shore: a good cast reaches deep water. Current and surf hit harder here.
  • Swimming. The water gets deeper little by little, but a few dozen yards out you can no longer stand.
  • Diving. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 1,250 ft and 66 ft at 0.3 mi from shore.

Inside bays, estuaries and harbors the bottom changes a lot from spot to spot (channels and shoals): use this only as a rough guide.
