Tides

Tides in Pazar

Today's high and low tides

  • ▲ High tide 12:48 pm 0.1 ft
  • ▼ Low tide 5:52 pm -0.1 ft

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 4 h 33 min to low tide at 6:20 am.

In Pazar the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.3 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 July 15 (0.2 ft) and the lowest, on June 15 (-0.2 ft).

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

Where this tide comes from

No significant tide

Tides from the FES2022 station (AVISO/CNES), 1.5 mi from Pazar. Times and heights are its predictions.

Station data 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).

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Pazar

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · light air, Beaufort 1
Waves 0.7 ft · 3.6 s from the northeast (36°)
Swell 0.7 ft · 3.1 s from the northeast
Current 0.6 mph toward the W

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.4 ft
  • Significant0.7 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest1.5 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 1.5 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 1.5 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 5 mph S · gusts 10

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

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

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 Pazar 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
  • 1:34–3:34 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:07–4:07 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 10:13–11:13 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 6:59–7:59 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 950 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 0.35 mi.

From the shoreline (600 ft from Pazar) out to sea, heading north.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep750 ft
  • 33 ft deep950 ft
  • 66 ft deep1,200 ft
  • 164 ft deep0.35 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 11 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 950 ft and 66 ft at 1,200 ft from shore.

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

Source: EMODnet Bathymetry DTM 2024, here using the GEBCO grid (CC BY 4.0), cells of about 0.3 mi; depth at the lowest astronomical tide. For reference only: not for navigation or anchoring.
