Today's high and low tides

  • ▼ Low tide 7:11 am -2.1 ft

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 15 h 44 min to high tide at 11:09 pm.

Tide coefficient 111 for the 11:09 pm high tide. Big spring tides. The water rises and falls 4.4 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 (2.9 ft) and the lowest, on June 16 (-2.6 ft).

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

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 come from October 30 to 31 (coefficient 114, 4.5 ft range). The smallest, on October 10 (coefficient 20, 1.4 ft).

Where this tide comes from

M · Global model

Purac 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

Waves 2.2 ft · 7.7 s from the north-northwest (340°)

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 4.5 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 4.5 ft.

The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.

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.

The best window, 6:00 am to 10:00 am, has glassy water, 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, 6:30 am to 8:10 am, combines slack water at low tide, light wind and weak current. Also good from 12:40 pm to 3:20 pm, with light wind, weak current and the sun high.

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
  • 1:04–3:04 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity

  • 8:23–9:23 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:48–8:48 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

Drops off fast

The bottom drops off fast: the water is 33 ft deep just 80 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 500 ft.

From the shoreline (1,000 ft from Purac) out to sea, heading west.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep40 ft
  • 33 ft deep80 ft
  • 66 ft deep150 ft
  • 164 ft deep500 ft

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 116 ft just 330 ft out. Good for casting from rocks, jetties or the beach itself; current and surf hit harder here.
  • Swimming. The bottom drops quickly near the shore and you are soon out of your depth. Keep an eye on kids and weak swimmers.
  • Diving. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 80 ft and 66 ft at 150 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.
