  • Waning gibbous: a bit more activity than at the quarters

Your day at a glance

The best window, 6:40 pm to 7:30 pm, combines moonrise, a light onshore breeze and some swell. Also worth a try from 6:40 am to 7:30 am, with sunrise and some swell, though with moderate wind. Also worth a try from 1:10 am to 3:10 am, with a major period, though with moderate wind.

Species with the most records nearby: salema, saddled seabream, white seabream and common two-banded seabream. October is one of the months when these are seen most: white seabream and common two-banded seabream. What you can catch

Tides in Ets Alocs

Today's high and low tides

  • ▼ Low tide 2:25 am 0.6 ft
  • ▲ High tide 9:37 am 1.1 ft
  • ▼ Low tide 4:39 pm 0.9 ft
  • ▲ High tide 8:25 pm 0.9 ft

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 3 h 2 min to low tide at 2:55 am.

In Ets Alocs the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.5 ft between high and low tide. Here the sea level is moved mostly by wind and air pressure (storm surge), which can raise or lower it more than the tide itself.

2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on October 4 (1.3 ft) and the lowest, on February 2 (0.0 ft).

Heights above chart datum: the lowest astronomical tide (LAT), the zero of nautical charts in Europe. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. chart datum (LAT)

Where this tide comes from

No significant tide

Tides from the Palma station (TICON-4), 79 mi from Ets Alocs. Times and heights are its predictions.

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Ets Alocs

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: slight

Slight Douglas 3 · moderate breeze, Beaufort 4
Waves 3.6 ft · 5.4 s from the north (11°)
Swell 3.5 ft · 4.7 s from the north
Current 0.2 mph toward the NW

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common1.8 ft
  • Significant3.6 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest7.5 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 7.5 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 7.5 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 9 mph N · gusts 16
Offshore (14 mi N)Offshore 12 mph N · gusts 18

Onshore wind. The coast faces north and the wind blows straight in from the sea: more surf and backwash at the shore, and bait and boats drift toward land.

Onshore Hourly wind →

Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days

Waves build over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Monday 2: 7.8 ft with a period of 7 s, from the north (moderate).

Water now72.7 °F

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 71.0 °F by Tuesday 3.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+3.6 °F).

Today’s surf at a glance

The best window, 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm, has a good size, though with a short-period swell, wind swell and onshore wind. 7:00 am to 11:00 am can also work, with a good size, though with a short-period swell, wind 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.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 7:10 am to 10:10 am, lines up with weak current, though with moderate wind.

In Ets Alocs the tide barely moves the water, so there's no slack to wait for: swell, wind and current are what count.

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: high
  • 1:05–3:05 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:37–3:37 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 9:31–10:31 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 6:38–7:38 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

Drops off fast

The bottom drops off fast: the water is 33 ft deep just 600 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 2.1 mi.

From the shoreline (900 ft from Ets Alocs) out to sea, heading north.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep140 ft
  • 33 ft deep600 ft
  • 66 ft deep0.3 mi
  • 164 ft deep2.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 23 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. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 600 ft and 66 ft at 0.3 mi from shore.

Right by the shore the bottom may drop even faster than shown.
