Where this tide comes from
López Jaena has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global FES2022 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 1.0 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 López Jaena
Sea stateSea state: smooth
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common0.3 ft
- Significant0.7 ft
- Highest expectedHighest1.4 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 1.4 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 1.4 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces east 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 Tuesday 3: 1.0 ft with a period of 4 s, from the north-northeast (smooth).
Water temperature

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,493 mi away and looks 32′ 46″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 12:48–2:48 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:20–3:20 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 7:52–8:52 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 fastThe bottom drops off fast: the water is 33 ft deep just 140 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 0.6 mi.
From the shoreline (0.65 mi from López Jaena) out to sea, heading east.
How far from shore
- 16 ft deep70 ft
- 33 ft deep140 ft
- 66 ft deep470 ft
- 164 ft deep0.6 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 53 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 140 ft and 66 ft at 470 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.
