Where this tide comes from
Erandio has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global EOT20 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 9.0 mi away). It may differ from the real tide by a few minutes and inches, and more with wind or storms. Heights are above mean sea level, not chart datum, so low tides are negative. Not for navigation.

The sea at Erandio
Sea stateSea state: moderate
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common3.6 ft
- Significant7.2 ft
- Highest expectedHighest14 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 14 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 14 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 stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Wednesday 28: 7.2 ft with a period of 12 s, from the northwest (moderate).
Water temperature

- Likely visibility: poor. Swell (up to 8.1 ft at 11 s) over the last few days has stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 64.9 °F: a 5 mm wetsuit.
- Snorkeling: better not, with these waves, wind or current.
- Night dive: dark from 6:38 pm. Waning gibbous (93%), rising at 7:23 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 10:40 am to 11:30 am, combines slack water at low tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high, though with a big swell.
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.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,461 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: high- 1:34–3:34 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:06–4:06 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 10:13–11:13 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 6:53–7:53 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.

For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Very shallow: the water doesn't reach 16 ft within 650 ft. Cast far from the beach, ideally around high tide.
- 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: the water doesn't reach 33 ft within 650 ft. For deeper dives, take a boat farther out.
Inside bays, estuaries and harbors the bottom changes a lot from spot to spot (channels and shoals): use this only as a rough guide. There is land ahead (an island, a headland or the far shore) 650 ft out.
