Today's high and low tides

  • ▲ High tide 2:13 pm 1.5 ft · coef. 112

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 5 h 34 min to low tide at 10:25 pm.

Tide coefficient 112 for the 2:13 pm high tide. Big spring tides. The water rises and falls 1.7 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 January 1 (1.6 ft) and the lowest, on May 20 (-0.6 ft).

Mixed, mainly diurnal: on many days there is only one high and one low tide.

Heights above mean lower low water (MLLW), the zero of US 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. MLLW

Tide coefficient and range in October

The biggest tides of the month come from October 28 to 30 (coefficient 113, 1.8 ft range). The smallest, on October 22 (coefficient 24, 0.7 ft).

Where this tide comes from

B · Nearby station

Ustupo has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Bahia de Caledonia (NOAA), 23 mi away. On the open coast the difference is usually a few minutes and inches; inside estuaries, rivers and enclosed bays it can be much larger. It is a NOAA subordinate station: its times and heights come from the Cristobal (Colon) reference station with the official corrections.

Sea and waves

The sea at Ustupo

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: slight

Slight Douglas 3 · gentle breeze, Beaufort 3
Waves 2.0 ft · 5.1 s from the north (5°)
Swell 1.2 ft · 4.4 s from the north-northwest

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common1.0 ft
  • Significant2.0 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest4.1 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 4.1 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 4.1 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 7 mph NNE · gusts 17
Offshore (9.6 mi NNW)Offshore 9 mph N · gusts 14

Onshore wind. The coast faces northeast and the wind blows straight in from the sea: more surf and backwash at the shore, and bait and boats drift toward land.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+2.6 °F).

The best window is 6:00 am to 10:00 am, though with a short-period swell and wind swell.

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.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 1:40 pm to 2:40 pm, combines slack water at high tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 6:00 am to 6:40 am, with little swell, 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.

Never dive alone and check with the local dive shop: this rating is a guide, not a substitute for a professional.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 12:47–2:47 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:19–3:19 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 7:51–8:51 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:46–8:46 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

Gentle slope

The bottom slopes gently: 16 ft deep 0.75 mi from shore and 33 ft at 0.8 mi. It reaches 164 ft at 1.5 mi.

From the shoreline (800 ft from Ustupo) out to sea, heading northeast.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep0.75 mi
  • 33 ft deep0.8 mi
  • 66 ft deep0.9 mi
  • 164 ft deep1.5 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.75 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 0.8 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).

Source: NOAA ETOPO 2022 (CC0), cells of about 0.3 mi; depth below mean sea level. For reference only: not for navigation or anchoring.
