Tides

Tides in Szczecin

Today's high and low tides

  • ▼ Low tide 10:47 am -0.1 ft
  • ▲ High tide 7:08 pm 0.0 ft

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 13 h 23 min to low tide at 11:17 am.

In Szczecin the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.0 ft between high and low tide. Here the sea level is moved mostly by wind and air pressure (storm surge), which can raise or lower it more than the tide itself.

2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on January 18 (0.2 ft) and the lowest, on May 1 (-0.3 ft).

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

Your diving day at a glance

In Szczecin the tide barely moves the water, so there's no slack to wait for: swell, wind and current are what count.

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: high
  • 12:21–2:21 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 12:52–2:52 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 9:57–10:57 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 4:42–5:42 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.

Water depth

Shallow, gradual

Shallow, gradual bottom: you need to go 1.1 mi out for 33 ft of water.

From the shoreline (0.55 mi from Szczecin) out to sea, heading northeast.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep0.7 mi
  • 33 ft deep1.1 mi
  • 66 ft deepnot within 1.6 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 1.6 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.7 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. Shallow near shore: you only reach 33 ft at 1.1 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, go by boat.

Inside bays, estuaries and harbors the bottom changes a lot from spot to spot (channels and shoals): use this only as a rough guide. There is land ahead (an island, a headland or the far shore) 1.6 mi out. The profile is turned slightly from the coast so it does not run into an island or a headland. Where the bottom comes up to the surface there are shoals, rocks or an islet next to the profile.
