↑ Rising The tide is rising. 1 h 6 min to high tide at 5:56 pm.
Tide coefficient 100 for the 5:02 am high tide and 97 for the 5:56 pm high tide. Big spring tides. The water rises and falls 4.9 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 (2.7 ft) and the lowest, on December 25 (-2.9 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 26 to 28 (coefficient 101, 4.9 ft range). The smallest, from October 18 to 19 (coefficient 28, 1.9 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Monsefú has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global FES2022 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 4.5 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 Monsefú
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common2.0 ft
- Significant4.1 ft
- Highest expectedHighest8.3 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 8.3 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 8.3 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces southwest 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 Sunday 1: 4.5 ft with a period of 10 s, from the south-southwest (moderate).
Water temperature

Surf in Monsefú today
Surf today
Poor- 2.4–3.7 ft surf at the shore, a fun size for most surfers
- 1.8 ft swell at 13 s from the southwest, long-period and powerful
- 2.5 ft wind swell at 3 s: messy waves
- Moderate onshore wind (14 mph): choppy, blown-out waves
- Rising tide (high tide at 5:56 pm)
- Light: First light 5:32 am · sunrise 5:53 am · sunset 6:13 pm · last light 6:35 pm
- Tide: high 5:02 am (1.8 ft), low 11:23 am (-2.6 ft) and high 5:56 pm (2.3 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 77.7 °F: boardshorts or a swimsuit and a rash guard.
- Energy: 120 kJ · Medium power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 2:00 pm to 6:00 pm, has a good size and a clean swell, though with wind swell and onshore wind. 11:00 am to 12:00 pm can also work, with a good size, though with a short-period swell. 6:00 am to 10:00 am can also work, with a good size, though with a short-period 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, 10:40 am to 12:10 pm, combines slack water at low tide, light wind and the sun high, though with current. Also worth a look from 5:30 pm to 6:10 pm, with slack water at high tide and light wind, though with 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.

The moon in Monsefú
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,426 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 12:55–2:55 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:27–3:27 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 7:26–8:26 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 8:29–9:29 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.
