The water rises and falls 6.8 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.

Where this tide comes from

M · Global model

Belison has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global FES2022 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 1.9 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 Belison

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · light breeze, Beaufort 2
Waves 1.5 ft · 4.9 s from the north-northwest (340°)

Current 0.5 mph toward the NE

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.8 ft

  • Highest expectedHighest3.1 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 3.1 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 3.1 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 3 mph W · gusts 14
Offshore (11 mi NNE)Offshore 5 mph SW · gusts 9

Onshore wind. The coast faces west and the wind blows straight in from the sea: more surf and backwash at the shore, and bait and boats drift toward land.

Today’s surf at a glance

The best window, 5:21 am to 9:00 am, has glassy water, though with a short-period swell. 12:00 pm to 4:00 pm can also work, with glassy water, though with small waves, a short-period swell and thunderstorms.

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, 6:20 am to 8:00 am, combines slack water at low tide and light wind, though with current. Also worth a look from 10:10 am to 11:30 am, with little swell, light wind and the sun high, though with tidal current and 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
  • 12:56–2:56 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity

  • 8:05–9:05 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:51–8:51 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

Gentle slope

The bottom slopes gently: 16 ft deep 0.25 mi from shore and 33 ft at 0.3 mi. It reaches 164 ft at 0.75 mi.

From the shoreline (0.4 mi from Belison) out to sea, heading west.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep0.25 mi
  • 33 ft deep0.3 mi
  • 66 ft deep0.4 mi
  • 164 ft deep0.75 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.25 mi): cast far from the beach and fish the high tide, when there is more water close in.
  • Swimming. A very gentle way in with plenty of shallow water, good for kids. At low tide the water can be far out.
  • Diving. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 0.3 mi and 66 ft at 0.4 mi from shore.

Rough estimate: here the data comes in cells of about 0.3 mi and misses details near shore (rocks, sandbars, small coves).
