Tides in Fethiye

Today's high and low tides

  • ▲ High tide 12:11 am 1.1 ft
  • ▲ High tide 12:59 pm 0.8 ft
  • ▼ Low tide 6:26 pm 0.5 ft

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 5 h 16 min to low tide at 7:04 am.

In Fethiye the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.8 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 August 13 (1.5 ft) and the lowest, on April 18 (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)

Where this tide comes from

No significant tide

Tides from the Antalya station (TICON-4), 84 mi from Fethiye. Times and heights are its predictions.

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Fethiye

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: slight

Slight Douglas 3 · moderate breeze, Beaufort 4
Waves 2.0 ft · 4.4 s from the south-southwest (194°)
Swell 1.8 ft · 3.8 s from the south-southwest
Current 0.2 mph toward the S

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common1.0 ft
  • Significant2.0 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest4.1 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 4.1 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 4.1 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 2 mph NE · gusts 13
Offshore (12 mi SW)Offshore 12 mph SE · gusts 20

Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces west and the wind comes off the land at an angle: calmer water near the shore, and bait and boats drift out to sea.

Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days

Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Thursday 29: 2.5 ft with a period of 5 s, from the south-southwest (slight).

Water temperature

Water now74.1 °F
Today 73.6–76.5 °F air: 60 / 66 °F

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 (+1.8 °F).

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 9:50 am to 12:50 pm, combines light wind, weak current and the sun high.

In Fethiye 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
  • 2:23–4:23 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:56–4:56 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 10:44–11:44 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 8:07–9:07 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.
