  • ▼ Low tide 6:15 pm 1.3 ft

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 3 h 16 min to low tide at 6:12 am.

Tide coefficient 97 for the 12:29 am high tide and 93 for the 11:37 am high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 10.4 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 May 18 (12.2 ft) and the lowest, on December 24 (0.3 ft).

Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.

Heights above chart datum: the lowest astronomical tide (LAT), the zero of nautical charts in Europe. 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 (LAT)

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 10:20 am to 12:30 pm, combines slack water at high tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 5:20 pm to 6:20 pm, with slack water at low tide, light wind and weak 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.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 1:46–3:46 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity

  • 9:29–10:29 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 8:06–9:06 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

Shallow, gradual

Shallow, gradual bottom: you need to go 1.7 mi out for 33 ft of water.

From the shoreline (1,100 ft from Goth Shams Pir) out to sea, heading south.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep1.1 mi
  • 33 ft deep1.7 mi
  • 66 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 1.1 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 1.7 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, go by boat.

Rough estimate: here the data comes in cells of about 0.3 mi and misses details near shore (rocks, sandbars, small coves).
