Tides

Tides in Araklı

Today's high and low tides

  • ▼ Low tide 6:23 am -0.2 ft
  • ▼ Low tide 6:01 pm -0.1 ft

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 3 h 46 min to high tide at 12:50 pm.

In Araklı the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.2 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 (0.2 ft) and the lowest, on November 25 (-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), 2.0 mi from Araklı. 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 Araklı

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · calm, Beaufort 0
Waves 0.7 ft · 4.9 s from the northeast (36°)
Swell 0.7 ft · 4.1 s from the northeast
Current 0.2 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 2 mph S · gusts 6

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.

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 (+2.1 °F).

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

Today the moon is 226,576 mi away and looks 32′ 46″ across.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 1:38–3:38 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:10–4:10 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 10:16–11:16 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:04–8:04 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 0.35 mi from shore and 33 ft at 0.4 mi. It reaches 164 ft at 0.6 mi.

From the shoreline (900 ft from Araklı) out to sea, heading north.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep0.35 mi
  • 33 ft deep0.4 mi
  • 66 ft deep0.45 mi
  • 164 ft deep0.6 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.35 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 0.4 mi and 66 ft at 0.45 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).

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.
