Tides in Lucija
Today's high and low tides
- ▼ Low tide 3:52 am 0.9 ft
- ▲ High tide 9:58 am 3.3 ft · coef. 92
- ▼ Low tide 4:55 pm -0.3 ft
- ▲ Next high tide 11:22 pm 2.4 ft · coef. 85
↑ Rising The tide is rising. 30 min to high tide at 11:22 pm.
Tide coefficient 92 for the 9:58 am high tide and 85 for the 11:22 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 3.6 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 October 26 (3.4 ft) and the lowest, on July 15 (-1.0 ft).
Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.
Heights above MLWS. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. MLWS
Tide coefficient and range in October
The biggest tides of the month came from October 9 to 10 (coefficient 108, 3.6 ft range). The smallest, on October 3 (coefficient 20, 1.5 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Lucija has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Trieste (TICON-4), 12 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 Lucija
Sea stateSea state: smooth
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common0.3 ft
- Significant0.5 ft
- Highest expectedHighest1.1 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 1.1 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 1.1 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces west and the wind comes off the land at an angle: calmer water near the shore, and bait and boats drift out to sea.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves build over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Tuesday 3: 2.6 ft with a period of 3 s, from the northeast (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 63.2 °F by Tuesday 3.
Water warmer than normal for late October (+2.9 °F).

Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 9:00 am to 10:50 am, combines slack water at high tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 4:20 pm to 5:00 pm, with slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind and weak 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 Lucija
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,461 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: high- 12:25–2:25 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 12:56–2:56 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 9:14–10:14 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 5:34–6:34 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

- 16 ft deep460 ft
- 33 ft deep1.6 mi
- 66 ft deep3 mi
- 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 460 ft): cast far from the beach and fish the high tide, when there is more water close in.
- Swimming. The water gets deeper little by little, but a few dozen yards out you can no longer stand.
- Diving. Shallow near shore: you only reach 33 ft at 1.6 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, go by boat.
Inside bays, estuaries and harbors the bottom changes a lot from spot to spot (channels and shoals): use this only as a rough guide. Right by the shore the bottom may drop even faster than shown.
