Tides in Kholmsk
Today's high and low tides
- ▼ Low tide 5:08 am 0.0 ft
- ▲ High tide 8:02 am 0.1 ft
- ▼ Low tide 4:02 pm -0.4 ft
↑ Rising The tide is rising. 7 h 12 min to high tide at 12:18 am.
In Kholmsk the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.5 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 June 16 (0.7 ft) and the lowest, on August 13 (-0.6 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), 1.6 mi from Kholmsk. 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). Modified by TidePlanet: constants interpolated from the nearest model cells offshore; heights above mean sea level.
The sea at Kholmsk
Sea stateSea state: moderate
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common2.4 ft
- Significant4.8 ft
- Highest expectedHighest9.9 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 9.9 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 9.9 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Onshore wind. The coast faces west and the wind blows straight in from the sea: more surf and backwash at the shore, and bait and boats drift toward land.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves build over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Sunday 1: 11 ft with a period of 8 s, from the northwest (rough).
Water temperature
Water temperature →The satellite measured 7.4 °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 cools over the next few days: about 36.5 °F by Wednesday 4.
Water colder than normal for late October (−7.4 °F).

Surf in Kholmsk today
Surf today
Fair- 2.4–3.7 ft surf at the shore, a fun size for most surfers
- 3.7 ft swell at 5 s from the west-southwest, short: weak, messy waves
- Almost no wind (4 mph): glassy water
- First or last light of the day
- Light: First light 7:38 am · sunrise 8:09 am · sunset 6:21 pm · last light 6:53 pm
- Tide: We don’t have a reliable tide to show here.
- Water at 37.4 °F–38.7 °F: a 6/5 hooded fullsuit with booties and gloves.
- Energy: 75 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 6:00 pm to 6:53 pm, has a good size and glassy water, though with a short-period swell. 3:00 pm to 4:00 pm can also work, with a good size, though with a short-period swell and onshore wind.
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 Kholmsk today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: poor- 3.9 ft swell at 6 s from the west-southwest: some surge on the bottom
- Moderate onshore wind (13 mph)
- 0.4 mph current toward the south-southwest, weak (model)
- Sun high: more light underwater
- Slack water today: none; the tide doesn't count here
- Likely visibility: poor. Swell (up to 6.8 ft at 6 s) and rain (0.35 in) over the last few days have stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 37.4–38.7 °F: a drysuit, with hood, gloves and booties.
- Snorkeling: better not, with these waves, wind or current.
- Night dive: dark from 6:53 pm. Waning gibbous (89%), rising at 7:58 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 1:30 pm to 4:30 pm, combines weak current and the sun high, though with some swell and moderate wind. Also worth a look from 7:40 am to 9:20 am, with weak current, though with some swell and moderate wind. Also worth a look from 5:30 pm to 6:20 pm, with light wind, though with some swell and current.
In Kholmsk the tide barely moves the water, so there's no slack to wait for: swell, wind and current are what count.

The moon in Kholmsk
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,459 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 2:32–4:32 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 3:04–5:04 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 11:37 am–12:37 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 7:28–8:28 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
Drops off fastThe bottom drops off fast: the water is 33 ft deep just 600 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 1.6 mi.
From the shoreline (0.55 mi from Kholmsk) out to sea, heading west.
How far from shore
- 16 ft deep210 ft
- 33 ft deep600 ft
- 66 ft deep0.35 mi
- 164 ft deep1.6 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 21 ft just 330 ft out. Good for casting from rocks, jetties or the beach itself; current and surf hit harder here.
- Swimming. The bottom drops quickly near the shore and you are soon out of your depth. Keep an eye on kids and weak swimmers.
- Diving. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 600 ft and 66 ft at 0.35 mi from shore.
Rough estimate: here the data comes in cells of about 0.3 mi and misses details near shore (rocks, sandbars, small coves).
Source: NOAA ETOPO 2022 (CC0), cells of about 0.3 mi; depth below mean sea level. For reference only: not for navigation or anchoring.
