Tides

Tides in Sakiet ed Daier

Today's high and low tides

  • ▲ High tide 3:10 am 1.1 ft
  • ▼ Low tide 9:39 am 0.3 ft
  • ▲ High tide 3:20 pm 1.0 ft
  • ▼ Low tide 9:44 pm 0.3 ft

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 4 h 48 min to high tide at 3:43 am.

In Sakiet ed Daier the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.9 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 26 (1.2 ft) and the lowest, on March 4 (-0.3 ft).

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

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Sakiet ed Daier

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · gentle breeze, Beaufort 3
Waves 0.9 ft · 3.7 s from the northeast (51°)
Swell 0.9 ft · 3.0 s from the northeast
Current 0.2 mph toward the SW

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.5 ft
  • Significant0.9 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest1.9 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 1.9 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 1.9 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 2 mph NNW · gusts 4
Offshore (11 mi ESE)Offshore 8 mph NNE · gusts 13

Offshore wind. The coast faces southeast and the wind blows from land out to sea: calm shore and clean waves, but watch the drift out to sea.

The best window, 6:08 am to 10:00 am, has light offshore wind, though with barely any waves.

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, 9:00 am to 12:00 pm, combines little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high.

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

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
  • 12:37–2:37 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:08–3:08 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 8:44–9:44 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 6:29–7:29 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

Very shallow

Very shallow and flat: even 3.1 mi from shore the water is less than 16 ft deep.

From the shoreline (1.3 mi from Sakiet ed Daier) out to sea, heading southeast.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
  • 33 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
  • 66 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Very shallow: the water doesn't reach 16 ft within 3.1 mi. 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 3.1 mi. For deeper dives, take a boat farther out.

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