Where this tide comes from
Água-Côco has no station of its own, so we use the tide at São Tomé (TICON-4), 26 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 Água-Côco
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.3 ft
- Significant2.6 ft
- Highest expectedHighest5.3 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 5.3 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 5.3 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.
Onshore wind. The coast faces southwest 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 stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Tuesday 3: 3.7 ft with a period of 10 s, from the south-southwest (slight).
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 83.2 °F by Wednesday 4.

Surf in Água-Côco today
Surf today
Poor- 1.8–2.8 ft surf at the shore, a fun size for most surfers
- 2.3 ft swell at 7 s from the south, short: weak, messy waves
- Light onshore wind (8 mph): a bit of chop
- Falling tide (low tide at 11:22 am)
- Light: First light 4:53 am · sunrise 5:14 am · sunset 5:21 pm · last light 5:42 pm
- Tide: high 5:05 am (6.4 ft), low 11:22 am (1.1 ft), high 5:51 pm (5.8 ft) and low 11:36 pm (2.0 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 83.7 °F–84.7 °F: boardshorts or a swimsuit and a rash guard.
- Energy: 43 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 6:00 am to 10:00 am, has a good size, though with a short-period swell. 2:00 pm to 5:42 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 Água-Côco today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: fair- Slack water around low tide (11:22 am): little current from 11:00 am to 11:40 am
- 2.3 ft swell at 7 s from the south: some surge on the bottom
- Light onshore wind (10 mph)
- 0.5 mph current toward the southeast, weak (model)
- Sun high: more light underwater
- Slack water today: high tide 5:05 am (4:40–5:30 am), low tide 11:22 am (11:00–11:40 am), high tide 5:51 pm (5:20–6:20 pm) and low tide 11:36 pm (11:10 pm–12:00 am)
- Likely visibility: fair. Swell (up to 2.8 ft at 6 s) and rain (0.25 in) over the last few days have stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 83.7–84.7 °F: a shorty or a rash guard.
- Snorkeling: doable, with some waves or wind.
- Night dive: dark from 5:42 pm. Waning gibbous (85%), rising at 8:47 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 10:30 am to 12:10 pm, combines slack water at low tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 4:20 pm to 5:40 pm, with slack water at high tide, light wind and weak current. Also worth a look from 5:10 am to 5:50 am, with slack water at high tide and light wind, though with 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.

Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 12:58–2:58 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity

- 7:43–8:43 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 8:17–9:17 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.

- 33 ft deep1.1 mi
- 66 ft deep1.2 mi
- 164 ft deep1.9 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).
