  • Water 87 °F

    Very warm: barely refreshing.

  • Sun & sunscreen UV 8 · SPF 50

    Max UV 8 (very high): SPF 50 sunscreen, reapplied every 2 hours. Seek shade 11:00 am–12:00 pm (very high UV).

  • Wind 9 mph

    Offshore breeze (9 mph). Watch floats and inflatables: offshore wind carries them out to sea.

  • Tide & sand 6:05 pm

    Low tide at 7:13 am and 6:05 pm: that's when there's the most sand. High tide at 12:02 am and 1:22 pm. Coefficient 100 (spring tides): little sand left at high tide.

The best window, 7:00 am to 10:00 am, brings sunshine, beach weather, a calm sea, water at 87 °F and low tide at 7:13 am, though with rain and light offshore wind.

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 5 h 36 min to high tide at 1:22 pm.

Tide coefficient 100 for the 12:02 am high tide and 95 for the 1:22 pm high tide. Big spring tides. The water rises and falls 9.2 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 (5.2 ft) and the lowest, on December 25 (-4.8 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

Where this tide comes from

M · Global model

Tambongon 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 Tambongon

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · moderate breeze, Beaufort 4
Waves 0.6 ft · 2.6 s from the north-northeast (33°)
Swell 0.4 ft · 2.0 s from the northeast
Current 0.3 mph toward the W

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.3 ft
  • Significant0.6 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest1.3 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 1.3 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 1.3 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 9 mph ENE · gusts 18
Offshore (12 mi W)Offshore 12 mph ENE · gusts 17

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

Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water is steady these days, with no sudden changes.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+2.1 °F).

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 6:30 am to 8:00 am, combines slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind and weak current. Also worth a look from 11:30 am to 12:30 pm, with little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high, though with tidal current. Also worth a look from 3:30 pm to 5:40 pm, with little swell, light wind and weak current, 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.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 12:47–2:47 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:20–3:20 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 7:57–8:57 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:42–8:42 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.
