Today's high and low tides

  • ▲ High tide 10:29 am 3.1 ft · coef. 77
  • ▼ Low tide 5:37 pm -0.1 ft

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 55 min to low tide at 4:26 am.

Tide coefficient 77 for the 10:29 am high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 3.1 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

B · Nearby station

Portorož 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.

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Portorož

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · moderate breeze, Beaufort 4
Waves 0.8 ft · 2.1 s from the east-northeast (58°)
Swell 0.2 ft · 1.7 s from the north
Current 0.1 mph toward the W

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.4 ft
  • Significant0.8 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest1.7 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 1.7 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 1.7 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 3 mph ENE · gusts 8
Offshore (4.6 mi WSW)Offshore 13 mph ENE · gusts 19

Offshore wind. The coast faces west and the wind blows from land out to sea: calm shore and clean waves, but watch the drift out to sea.

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 62.4 °F by Wednesday 4.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+2.9 °F).

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 9:20 am to 11:30 am, combines slack water at high tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also worth a look from 4:20 pm to 5:00 pm, with little swell, light wind and weak current, though with tidal 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.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 1:28–3:28 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:01–4:01 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 10:28–11:28 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 6:33–7:33 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

Gentle slope

The bottom slopes gently: 16 ft deep 400 ft from shore and 33 ft at 0.8 mi. Right off the beach it already drops to about 14 ft.

From the shoreline (0.55 mi from Portorož) out to sea, heading west.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep400 ft
  • 33 ft deep0.8 mi
  • 66 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 14 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. Shallow near shore: you only reach 33 ft at 0.8 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. Where the bottom comes up to the surface there are shoals, rocks or an islet next to the profile.
