Tides

Tides in Platja del Bogatell

Today's high and low tides

  • ▼ Low tide 3:50 am 0.6 ft
  • ▲ High tide 10:13 am 1.3 ft
  • ▲ High tide 9:49 pm 1.0 ft

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 4 h 39 min to low tide at 5:49 pm.

In Platja del Bogatell the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.7 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 November 27 (1.3 ft) and the lowest, on February 3 (0.1 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 Port-Vendres station (TICON-4), 91 mi from Platja del Bogatell. Times and heights are its predictions.

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Platja del Bogatell

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · moderate breeze, Beaufort 4
Waves 1.4 ft · 4.0 s from the east (87°)
Swell 1.1 ft · 4.0 s from the east-northeast
Current 0.1 mph toward the WNW

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.7 ft
  • Significant1.4 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest3.1 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 3.1 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 3.1 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 5 mph ESE · gusts 11
Offshore (10 mi SSE)Offshore 13 mph E · gusts 18

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

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 70.1 °F by Wednesday 4.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+5.6 °F).

The best window, 7:00 am to 11:00 am, has light offshore wind, though with small waves and a short-period 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.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 9:30 am to 12:30 pm, combines little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high.

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

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 2:16–4:16 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity

  • 10:56–11:56 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:40–8:40 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 1.7 mi.

From the shoreline out to sea, heading southeast.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep380 ft
  • 33 ft deep600 ft
  • 66 ft deep0.45 mi
  • 164 ft deep1.7 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 11 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 0.45 mi from shore.

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