Tides

Tides in Platja de Sant Jordi

Today's high and low tides

  • ▼ Low tide 3:11 am 0.6 ft
  • ▲ High tide 9:26 am 1.3 ft
  • ▼ Low tide 4:43 pm 0.7 ft
  • ▲ High tide 9:10 pm 1.1 ft

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 4 h 53 min to low tide at 3:50 am.

In Platja de Sant Jordi 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)

Tides from the Port-Vendres station (TICON-4), 10 mi from Platja de Sant Jordi. Times and heights are its predictions.

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Platja de Sant Jordi

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: slight

Slight Douglas 3 · moderate breeze, Beaufort 4
Waves 2.0 ft · 3.5 s from the north (353°)
Swell 0.8 ft · 3.9 s from the north-northeast
Current 0.1 mph toward the N

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common1.0 ft
  • Significant2.0 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest4.3 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 4.3 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 4.3 ft.

On the coast 9 mph NNW · gusts 21
Offshore (9.7 mi NNE)Offshore 17 mph NW · gusts 25

Cross-shore wind. The coast faces east and the wind blows along the shore: drift and current run parallel to the beach.

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

Today’s surf at a glance

The best window is 7:00 am to 11:00 am, though with a short-period swell, wind swell and cross-shore 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.

The best window, 12:30 pm to 3:30 pm, combines light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 4:30 pm to 5:50 pm, with light wind and weak current.

In Platja de Sant Jordi 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: high
  • 1:09–3:09 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity

  • 9:44–10:44 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 6:32–7:32 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

Deepens quickly

The bottom deepens quickly: 33 ft of water 1,150 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 1.5 mi.

From the shoreline out to sea, heading east.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep400 ft
  • 33 ft deep1,150 ft
  • 66 ft deep0.55 mi
  • 164 ft deep1.5 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 12 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 1,150 ft and 66 ft at 0.55 mi from shore.

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