Where this tide comes from
Aldeia de Paio Pires has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Cascais (TICON-4), 19 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.

Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 3:30 pm to 5:30 pm, combines slack water at high tide, light wind and weak current, though with some swell. Also worth a look from 9:50 am to 10:40 am, with slack water at low tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high, though with some 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.

Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 2:03–4:03 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
