  • ▼ Low tide 5:45 pm -0.6 ft

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 47 min to low tide at 7:37 am.

Tide coefficient 101 for the 12:13 am high tide and 97 for the 1:45 pm high tide. Big spring tides. The water rises and falls 5.7 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 (3.2 ft) and the lowest, on December 25 (-3.1 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

Palanit has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global FES2022 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 1.6 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 Palanit

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · gentle breeze, Beaufort 3
Waves 1.0 ft · 5.2 s from the north-northeast (26°)

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.5 ft
  • Significant1.0 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest2.0 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 2.0 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 2.0 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 4 mph NE · gusts 13
Offshore (8.0 mi SW)Offshore 8 mph ENE · gusts 12

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 (+1.7 °F).

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 4:40 pm to 5:20 pm, combines slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind and weak current. Also good from 12:30 pm to 1:30 pm, with slack water at high tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also worth a look from 6:40 am to 8:20 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
  • 12:46–2:46 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:18–3:18 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 7:58–8:58 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:37–8:37 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.
