Today's high and low tides

  • ▲ High tide 11:38 pm 3.5 ft · coef. 90

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 1 h 14 min to low tide at 4:32 pm.

Tide coefficient 95 for the 1:06 pm high tide and 90 for the 11:38 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 6.4 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 December 25 (3.9 ft) and the lowest, on December 25 (-3.2 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 10 to 12 (coefficient 105, 5.0 ft range). The smallest, on October 5 (coefficient 20, 3.9 ft).

Where this tide comes from

M · Global model

Cantapoy has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global FES2022 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 1.7 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.

Sea and waves

The sea at Cantapoy

Sea stateSea state: calm (rippled)

Calm (rippled) Douglas 1 · light breeze, Beaufort 2
Waves 0.2 ft · 3.8 s from the north (357°)

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 0.4 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 0.4 ft.

Offshore wind. The coast faces west and the wind blows from land out to sea: calm shore and clean waves, but watch the drift out to sea.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 2:30 pm to 5:20 pm, combines slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind and weak current. Also worth a look from 6:30 am to 7:10 am, with slack water at low tide, little swell 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.

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
  • 12:41–2:41 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity

  • 7:47–8:47 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:39–8:39 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 950 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 0.3 mi.

From the shoreline out to sea, heading west.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep850 ft
  • 33 ft deep950 ft
  • 66 ft deep1,100 ft
  • 164 ft deep0.3 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. 33 ft of water just 950 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 950 ft and 66 ft at 1,100 ft from shore.

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.
