Tides in Leagiagi
Today's high and low tides
- ▼ Low tide 1:49 am 3.6 ft
- ▲ High tide 8:15 am 6.9 ft · coef. 80
- ▼ Next low tide 1:54 pm 3.9 ft
- ▲ High tide 8:37 pm 7.3 ft · coef. 77
↓ Falling The tide is falling. 1 h 19 min to low tide at 1:54 pm.
Tide coefficient 80 for the 8:15 am high tide and 77 for the 8:37 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 3.8 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 December 24 (7.7 ft) and the lowest, on July 15 (2.8 ft).
Semidiurnal: two high and two low tides a day, of similar height.
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 8 to 10 (coefficient 90, 3.8 ft range). The smallest, from October 17 to 18 (coefficient 37, 2.2 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Leagiagi has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Asau Harbor (NOAA), 15 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. It is a NOAA subordinate station: its times and heights come from the Apia (Observatory) reference station with the official corrections.

The sea at Leagiagi
Sea stateSea state: moderate
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common2.5 ft
- Significant4.9 ft
- Highest expectedHighest10.0 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 10.0 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 10.0 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces north and the wind comes in from the sea at an angle: a bit more surf at the shore and drift along the coast, toward land.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Thursday 29: 5.7 ft with a period of 7 s, from the east (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.

Surf in Leagiagi today
Surf today
Fair- 2.0–3.1 ft surf at the shore, a fun size for most surfers
- 4.0 ft swell at 7 s from the east, short: weak, messy waves; it hits this coast at an angle
- Almost no wind (2 mph): glassy water
- Rising tide (high tide at 8:15 am)
- Light: First light 5:35 am · sunrise 5:57 am · sunset 6:30 pm · last light 6:52 pm
- Tide: low 1:49 am (3.6 ft), high 8:15 am (6.9 ft), low 1:54 pm (3.9 ft) and high 8:37 pm (7.3 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 82.4 °F: boardshorts or a swimsuit and a rash guard.
- Energy: 130 kJ · Medium power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 6:00 am to 10:00 am, has a good size and glassy water, though with a short-period swell. 5:00 pm to 6:52 pm can also work, with a good size, though with a short-period swell and wind 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 Leagiagi today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: good- Slack water around low tide (1:54 pm): little current from 1:30 pm to 2:30 pm
- 3.3 ft swell at 7 s from the east-northeast: some surge on the bottom
- Light onshore wind (7 mph)
- 1.0 mph current toward the west (model)
- Sun high: more light underwater
- Slack water today: low tide 1:49 am (1:30–2:20 am), high tide 8:15 am (7:50–8:30 am), low tide 1:54 pm (1:30–2:30 pm) and high tide 8:37 pm (8:10–8:52 pm)
- Likely visibility: good. Swell (up to 4.5 ft at 7 s) over the last few days has stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 82.4 °F: a shorty or a rash guard.
- Snorkeling: better not, with these waves, wind or current.
- Night dive: dark from 6:52 pm. Waning gibbous (89%), rising at 9:41 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 1:00 pm to 3:10 pm, combines slack water at low tide, light wind and the sun high, though with some swell and current. Also worth a look from 7:30 am to 8:50 am, with slack water at high tide and light wind, though with some swell and current.
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 Leagiagi
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,442 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:21–3:21 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:54–3:54 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 7:37–8:37 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 9:11–10:11 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

How far from shore
- 16 ft deep1.1 mi
- 33 ft deep1.1 mi
- 66 ft deep1.1 mi
- 164 ft deep1.2 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 1.1 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 1.1 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: NOAA ETOPO 2022 (CC0), cells of about 0.3 mi; depth below mean sea level. For reference only: not for navigation or anchoring.
