Tides

Tides in Tres Platges

Today's high and low tides

  • ▲ High tide 10:27 am 1.2 ft

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 2 h 9 min to low tide at 2:55 am.

In Tres Platges 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)

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Tres Platges

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · gentle breeze, Beaufort 3
Waves 0.9 ft · 4.0 s from the east (100°)
Swell 0.5 ft · 3.7 s from the east-southeast
Current 0.2 mph toward the NNE

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.4 ft
  • Significant0.9 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest1.8 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 1.8 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 1.8 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 3 mph NNW · gusts 5
Offshore (16 mi S)Offshore 10 mph WSW · gusts 15

Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces southeast and the wind comes off the land at an angle: calmer water near the shore, and bait and boats 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 71.4 °F by Wednesday 4.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+4.1 °F).

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 9:40 am to 12:40 pm, combines little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high.

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

Today's activity: medium
  • 2:24–4:24 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity

  • 10:59–11:59 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:53–8:53 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.

Water depth

Gentle slope

The bottom slopes gently: 16 ft deep 800 ft from shore and 33 ft at 0.65 mi.

From the shoreline out to sea, heading southeast.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep800 ft
  • 33 ft deep0.65 mi
  • 66 ft deep1.4 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 800 ft): cast far from the beach and fish the high tide, when there is more water close in.
  • 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 near shore: you only reach 33 ft at 0.65 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, go by boat.
