  • ▼ Low tide 8:06 pm -1.9 ft

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 6 h 4 min to high tide at 2:53 pm.

Tide coefficient 103 for the 1:40 am high tide and 98 for the 2:53 pm high tide. Big spring tides. The water rises and falls 10.0 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 November 27 (4.9 ft) and the lowest, on November 26 (-5.5 ft).

Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.

Heights above mean sea level. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. mean sea level

Tide coefficient and range in October

The biggest tides of the month came from October 27 to 28 (coefficient 106, 10.0 ft range). The smallest, on October 20 (coefficient 22, 2.9 ft).

Where this tide comes from

M · Global model

Betano has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global FES2022 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 2.5 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.

Model attribution: FES2022 Tide was produced by LEGOS, NOVELTIS and CLS, funded by CNES, and distributed by AVISO (https://doi.org/10.24400/527896/a01-2024.004), AVISO licence (https://www.aviso.altimetry.fr/fileadmin/documents/data/License_Aviso.pdf). Modified by TidePlanet: constants interpolated from the nearest model cells offshore; heights above mean sea level.

Sea and waves

The sea at Betano

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · light air, Beaufort 1
Waves 1.4 ft · 8.8 s from the southwest (216°)
Swell 1.4 ft · 7.6 s from the southwest
Current 0.9 mph toward the SW

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.7 ft
  • Significant1.4 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest2.8 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 2.8 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 2.8 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 1 mph SSE · gusts 9
Offshore (6.1 mi SSE)Offshore 2 mph SE · gusts 4

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

Water colder than normal for late October (−1.6 °F).

Today’s surf at a glance

The best window, 6:00 am to 10:00 am, has glassy water, though with a short-period swell. 12:00 pm to 4:00 pm can also work, 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.

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.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 2:00 pm to 3:40 pm, combines slack water at high tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also worth a look from 8:10 am to 8:50 am, with slack water at low tide and light wind, though with current.

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.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 1:40–3:40 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:12–4:12 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 8:05–9:05 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 9:19–10:19 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 0.3 mi from shore and 33 ft at 0.35 mi. It reaches 164 ft at 0.5 mi.

From the shoreline (1,100 ft from Betano) out to sea, heading south.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep0.3 mi
  • 33 ft deep0.35 mi
  • 66 ft deep0.4 mi
  • 164 ft deep0.5 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.3 mi): 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. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 0.35 mi and 66 ft at 0.4 mi from shore.

Rough estimate: here the data comes in cells of about 0.3 mi and misses details near shore (rocks, sandbars, small coves).
