↑ Rising The tide is rising. 20 min to high tide at 12:28 pm.
Tide coefficient 82 for the 12:28 pm high tide and 73 for the 11:55 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 9.8 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 August 12 (6.7 ft) and the lowest, on December 25 (-6.3 ft).
Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.
Heights above mean sea level. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. mean sea level
Tide coefficient and range in October
The biggest tides of the month came from October 8 to 10 (coefficient 107, 10.0 ft range). The smallest, on October 17 (coefficient 20, 4.3 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Daru has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global FES2022 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 1.0 mi away). It may differ from the real tide by a few minutes and inches, and more with wind or storms. Heights are above mean sea level, not chart datum, so low tides are negative. Not for navigation.
Model attribution: FES2022 Tide was produced by LEGOS, NOVELTIS and CLS, funded by CNES, and distributed by AVISO (https://doi.org/10.24400/527896/a01-2024.004), AVISO licence (https://www.aviso.altimetry.fr/fileadmin/documents/data/License_Aviso.pdf). Modified by TidePlanet: constants interpolated from the nearest model cells offshore; heights above mean sea level.
The sea at Daru
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.0 ft
- Significant2.0 ft
- Highest expectedHighest4.2 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 4.2 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 4.2 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces south and the wind comes in from the sea at an angle: a bit more surf at the shore and drift along the coast, toward land.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Thursday 29: 2.4 ft with a period of 4 s, from the southeast (slight).
Water temperature
Water temperature →Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water warms over the next few days: about 85.1 °F by Wednesday 4.
Water warmer than normal for late October (+1.7 °F).

Surf in Daru today
Surf today
Poor- 1.0–1.5 ft surf at the shore, small: good for learning or a longboard
- 0.3 ft swell at 5 s from the east-southeast, short: weak, messy waves
- 2.0 ft wind swell at 3 s: messy waves
- Light onshore wind (11 mph): a bit of chop
- Rising tide (high tide at 12:28 pm)
- Light: First light 5:37 am · sunrise 5:59 am · sunset 6:23 pm · last light 6:45 pm
- Tide: low 6:04 am (-5.1 ft), high 12:28 pm (4.7 ft), low 7:22 pm (-1.3 ft) and high 11:55 pm (1.5 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 83.3 °F: boardshorts or a swimsuit and a rash guard.
- Energy: 6 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window is 6:00 am to 10:00 am, though with small waves, a short-period swell, wind swell and onshore wind.
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 Daru today
Diving and snorkeling today

Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 12:30 pm to 1:10 pm, combines slack water at high tide, little swell, light wind and the sun high, though with current. Also good from 5:40 am to 6:50 am, with slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind and weak current. Also worth a look from 2:10 pm to 3:10 pm, with little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high, though with tidal 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 226,469 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:27–3:27 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:59–3:59 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 7:52–8:52 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 9:06–10:06 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.

For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 2.4 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: the water doesn't reach 33 ft within 3.1 mi. For deeper dives, take a boat farther out.
Rough estimate: here the data comes in cells of about 0.3 mi and misses details near shore (rocks, sandbars, small coves). The profile is turned slightly from the coast so it does not run into an island or a headland.
