The water rises and falls 1.3 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.

Where this tide comes from

M · Global model

Tomari has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global FES2022 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 1.5 mi away). It may differ from the real tide by a few minutes and inches, and more with wind or storms. Heights are above mean sea level, not chart datum, so low tides are negative. Not for navigation.

Model 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.

Today’s surf at a glance

The best window, 6:00 pm to 6:51 pm, has a good size and glassy water, though with a short-period swell. 8:00 am to 9:00 am can also work, with a good size, 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.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 3:50 pm to 4:40 pm, combines slack water at low tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high, though with some swell. Also worth a look from 8:10 am to 9:30 am, with slack water at high tide, light wind and weak current, though with waves.

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.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 2:32–4:32 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity

  • 11:41 am–12:41 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:24–8:24 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

Deepens quickly

The bottom deepens quickly: 33 ft of water 0.3 mi from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 0.55 mi.

From the shoreline (0.35 mi from Tomari) out to sea, heading west.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep0.3 mi
  • 33 ft deep0.3 mi
  • 66 ft deep0.35 mi
  • 164 ft deep0.55 mi

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.

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.
