Where this tide comes from

B · Nearby station

Praia do Zavial has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Lagos (TICON-4), 12 mi away. On the open coast the difference is usually a few minutes and inches; inside estuaries, rivers and enclosed bays it can be much larger.

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Praia do Zavial

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: moderate

Moderate Douglas 4 · gentle breeze, Beaufort 3
Waves 5.5 ft · 11.2 s from the northwest (307°)
Swell 5.2 ft · 9.6 s from the northwest
Current 0.5 mph toward the ESE

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common2.8 ft
  • Significant5.5 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest11 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 11 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 11 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 5 mph ENE · gusts 9
Offshore (7.4 mi ESE)Offshore 11 mph ENE · gusts 13

Cross-shore wind. The coast faces south and the wind blows along the shore: drift and current run parallel to the beach.

Water now62.6 °F
Today 62.4–63.1 °F air: 60 / 73 °F
Satellite (2 days ago) 65.8 °F measured 0.4 mi away

The satellite measured 3.2 °F more 2 days ago than the model gives now: the water is probably warmer than the forecast says.

Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water warms over the next few days: about 65.1 °F by Wednesday 4.

Water colder than normal for late October (−3.1 °F).

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 3:30 pm to 5:10 pm, combines slack water at high tide, light wind and weak current, though with some swell. Also worth a look from 9:30 am to 10:20 am, with slack water at low tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high, though with a big swell.

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.

  • 2:02–4:02 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity

  • 10:25–11:25 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:44–8:44 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 1,000 ft from shore and 33 ft at 0.35 mi. It reaches 164 ft at 1.8 mi.

From the shoreline out to sea, heading south.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep1,000 ft
  • 33 ft deep0.35 mi
  • 66 ft deep1.1 mi
  • 164 ft deep1.8 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 1,000 ft): 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. 33 ft deep 0.35 mi from shore; 66 ft is far out (1.1 mi): for deeper dives, go by boat.
