Today's high and low tides

  • ▼ Low tide 6:11 am 1.6 ft
  • ▼ Low tide 6:14 pm 2.2 ft

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 2 h 44 min to high tide at 12:15 pm.

Tide coefficient 93 for the 12:15 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 7.3 ft between the highest high and the lowest low: a large range for this place. 70 is an average tide here; 90 and above means spring tides; below 45, neap tides. What is the tide coefficient?

2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on October 27 (10.5 ft) and the lowest, on February 20 (0.5 ft).

Semidiurnal: two high and two low tides a day, of similar height.

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)

Tide coefficient and range in October

The biggest tides of the month came from October 26 to 27 (coefficient 105, 9.1 ft range). The smallest, from October 19 to 20 (coefficient 25, 2.2 ft).

Sea and waves

The sea at Talat Yai

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: slight

Slight Douglas 3 · moderate breeze, Beaufort 4
Waves 3.5 ft · 5.8 s from the west-southwest (244°)
Swell 2.7 ft · 5.8 s from the west-southwest
Current 0.6 mph toward the NNE

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common1.7 ft
  • Significant3.5 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest7.2 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 7.2 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 7.2 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 17 mph S · gusts 24

The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.

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 is steady these days, with no sudden changes.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+2.4 °F).

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 6:10 am to 7:00 am, combines slack water at low tide, light wind and weak current. Also worth a look from 5:30 pm to 6:10 pm, with slack water at low tide and weak current, though with moderate wind. Also worth a look from 11:00 am to 12:30 pm, with slack water at high tide, weak current and the sun high, though with some swell and moderate wind.

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.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 1:34–3:34 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:06–4:06 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 8:37–9:37 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 8:36–9:36 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.
