Tides in Carrizales
Today's high and low tides

- ▲ High tide 10:55 am 2.2 ft · coef. 83
- ▼ Low tide 5:46 pm 0.5 ft
- ▲ High tide 10:31 pm 1.0 ft · coef. 80
↓ Falling The tide is falling. 3 h 0 min to low tide at 3:38 am.
Tide coefficient 83 for the 10:55 am high tide and 80 for the 10:31 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 2.4 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. What is the tide coefficient?
2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on November 25 (2.3 ft) and the lowest, on May 18 (-0.5 ft).
Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.
Heights above mean lower low water (MLLW), the zero of US nautical charts. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. MLLW
Tide coefficient and range in October
The biggest tides of the month came from October 26 to 28 (coefficient 87, 2.4 ft range). The smallest, from October 18 to 19 (coefficient 44, 1.2 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Carrizales has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Arecibo (NOAA), 5.7 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.

The sea at Carrizales
Sea stateSea state: moderate
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common2.4 ft
- Significant4.8 ft
- Highest expectedHighest9.6 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 9.6 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 9.6 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.
Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces north and the wind comes off the land at an angle: calmer water near the shore, and bait and boats drift out to sea.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Thursday 29: 4.8 ft with a period of 10 s, from the north-northeast (moderate).
Water temperature
Water temperature →Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water is steady these days, with no sudden changes.
Water warmer than normal for late October (+2.0 °F).

Surf in Carrizales today
Surf today
Good- 3.0–4.6 ft surf at the shore, a good size with some punch
- 3.7 ft swell at 9 s from the north-northeast, a bit short
- Almost no wind (3 mph): glassy water
- Rising tide (high tide at 10:55 am)
Rip current risk today: high (statement in effect) · tomorrow: moderate (NWS)
Stay out of the water: rip currents can pull even strong swimmers out to sea. If one catches you, don't swim against it: swim parallel to the shore and wave for help.
Surf height from the NWS, today: 6.0 ft
- Light: First light 6:03 am · sunrise 6:26 am · sunset 5:56 pm · last light 6:18 pm
- Tide: low 3:38 am (-0.2 ft), high 10:55 am (2.2 ft), low 5:46 pm (0.5 ft) and high 10:31 pm (1.0 ft). Every break has its own tide: some work at low tide and others at high tide. The tide doesn’t change the score here.
- Water at 85.6 °F–86.5 °F: boardshorts or a swimsuit and a rash guard.
- Energy: 202 kJ · Medium power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 6:03 am to 10:00 am, has a good size and glassy water. 5:00 pm to 6:00 pm also works, with a good size and glassy water.
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.
Diving in Carrizales today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: poor- Slack water around high tide (10:55 am): little current from 10:40 am to 11:10 am
- 3.5 ft swell at 9 s from the north-northeast: some surge on the bottom
- Light onshore wind (5 mph)
- 0.1 mph current toward the north, weak (model)
- Sun high: more light underwater
- Slack water today: low tide 3:38 am (3:20–4:00 am), high tide 10:55 am (10:40–11:10 am), low tide 5:46 pm (5:10–6:30 pm) and high tide 10:31 pm (9:50–11:10 pm)
- Likely visibility: poor. Swell (up to 4.5 ft at 10 s) and rain (0.33 in) over the last few days have stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 85.6–86.5 °F: a shorty or a rash guard.
- Snorkeling: better not, with these waves, wind or current.
- Night dive: dark from 6:18 pm. Waning gibbous (84%), rising at 9:12 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 10:10 am to 11:50 am, combines slack water at high tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high, though with some swell. Also worth a look from 4:50 pm to 6:00 pm, with slack water at low tide, light wind and weak current, 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.
Never dive alone and check with the local dive shop: this rating is a guide, not a substitute for a professional.

The moon in Carrizales
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,746 mi away and looks 32′ 44″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 2:04–4:04 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:37–4:37 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 9:32–10:32 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 8:42–9:42 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.

For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. 33 ft of water just 0.3 mi from shore: a good cast reaches deep water. Current and surf hit harder here.
- Swimming. The water gets deeper little by little, but a few dozen yards out you can no longer stand.
- Diving. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 0.3 mi and 66 ft at 0.35 mi from shore.
