Tides in Palazu Mare
Today's high and low tides
- ▲ High tide 4:36 am 0.1 ft
- ▼ Low tide 10:34 am -0.1 ft
- ▲ High tide 3:58 pm 0.1 ft
- ▼ Low tide 10:30 pm -0.1 ft
↑ Rising The tide is rising. 5 h 37 min to high tide at 5:28 am.
In Palazu Mare the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.3 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 July 13 (0.2 ft) and the lowest, on May 16 (-0.1 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

Where this tide comes from
Tides from the FES2022 station (AVISO/CNES), 3.1 mi from Palazu Mare. Times and heights are its predictions.
Station data 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).

The sea at Palazu Mare
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.7 ft
- Significant3.3 ft
- Highest expectedHighest7.0 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 7.0 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 7.0 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-shore wind. The coast faces east and the wind blows along the shore: drift and current run parallel to the beach.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves build over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Tuesday 3: 6.4 ft with a period of 6 s, from the northeast (moderate).
Water temperature
Water temperature →Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water cools over the next few days: about 60.6 °F by Tuesday 3.
Water warmer than normal for late October (+2.0 °F).

Surf in Palazu Mare today
Surf today
Poor- 1.7–2.7 ft surf at the shore, a fun size for most surfers
- 2.4 ft swell at 4 s from the east, short: weak, messy waves
- Light cross-shore wind (10 mph): a bit of chop
- First or last light of the day
- Light: First light 6:07 am · sunrise 6:37 am · sunset 5:01 pm · last light 5:31 pm
- Tide: We don’t have a reliable tide to show here.
- Water at 62.6 °F: a 3/2 fullsuit.
- Energy: 23 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 6:07 am to 7:00 am, has a good size, though with a short-period swell. 8:00 am to 10:00 am can also work, though with a short-period swell.
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.
Diving in Palazu Mare today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: fair- 2.2 ft swell at 4 s from the east: some surge on the bottom
- Light onshore wind (9 mph)
- 0.4 mph current toward the southwest, weak (model)
- Sun high: more light underwater
- Slack water today: none; the tide doesn't count here
- Likely visibility: fair. Swell (up to 3.7 ft at 5 s) and rain (1.09 in) over the last few days have stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 62.6 °F: a 7 mm wetsuit, with hood and booties.
- Snorkeling: doable, with some waves or wind.
- Night dive: dark from 5:31 pm. Waning gibbous (93%), rising at 6:08 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 8:50 am to 11:50 am, combines light wind, weak current and the sun high.
In Palazu Mare 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.

The moon in Palazu Mare
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,471 mi away and looks 32′ 46″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: high- 12:22–2:22 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 12:54–2:54 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 9:04–10:04 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 5:38–6:38 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

From the shoreline (1.5 mi from Palazu Mare) out to sea, heading east.
How far from shore
- 16 ft deep0.35 mi
- 33 ft deep1 mi
- 66 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
- 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.35 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 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, go by boat.
Rough estimate: here the data comes in cells of about 0.3 mi and misses details near shore (rocks, sandbars, small coves).
Source: EMODnet Bathymetry DTM 2024, here using the GEBCO grid (CC BY 4.0), cells of about 0.3 mi; depth at the lowest astronomical tide. For reference only: not for navigation or anchoring.
