Your day at a glance

The best window, 3:40 pm to 4:30 pm, combines a major period and sunset, though with rising pressure. Also worth a try from 11:50 am to 1:50 pm, with the 12:46 pm high tide and moonset, though with rising pressure.

Species with the most records nearby: pollack, pollock, Atlantic cod and haddock. October is one of the months when these are seen most: pollack and Atlantic cod. What you can catch

Today's high and low tides

  • ▲ High tide 12:46 pm 5.6 ft · coef. 91

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 5 h 32 min to low tide at 6:41 pm.

Tide coefficient 95 for the 12:22 am high tide and 91 for the 12:46 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 4.3 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 October 27 (5.8 ft) and the lowest, on April 18 (0.3 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 26 to 28 (coefficient 100, 4.7 ft range). The smallest, on October 19 (coefficient 29, 1.2 ft).

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Dale

Hourly wind

Sea state

The wave model doesn't reach Dale: it's on inland water (an estuary, sound or sheltered bay) or far from the open sea. Wind is still available right here.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 5 mph W · gusts 16

The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.

Cross-shore wind. The coast faces north and the wind blows along the shore: drift and current run parallel to the beach.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: high
  • 2:01–4:01 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:33–4:33 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 1:31–2:31 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 4:34–5:34 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

Deepens quickly

The bottom deepens quickly: 33 ft of water 1,300 ft from shore.

From the shoreline (1.9 mi from Dale) out to sea, heading north.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep1,200 ft
  • 33 ft deep1,300 ft
  • 66 ft deep0.25 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 0.7 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. 33 ft of water just 1,300 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 1,300 ft and 66 ft at 0.25 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. There is land ahead (an island, a headland or the far shore) 0.7 mi out. Where the bottom comes up to the surface there are shoals, rocks or an islet next to the profile.
