Your day at a glance

The best window, 12:50 am to 2:50 am, combines a major period and some swell, though with fresh wind. Also worth a try from 1:20 pm to 4:20 pm, with a major period, sunset and some swell, though with fresh wind. Also worth a try from 5:40 am to 6:50 am, with sunrise, though with strong wind.

The tide barely moves in Melekyne, so it doesn't count in the rating.

Tides

Tides in Melekyne

Today's high and low tides

  • ▲ High tide 6:23 pm 0.1 ft

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 4 h 53 min to low tide at 10:42 am.

In Melekyne the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.1 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 13 (0.1 ft) and the lowest, on June 19 (-0.1 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), 1.6 mi from Melekyne. 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).

Today’s surf at a glance

The best window, 6:00 am to 10:00 am, has a good size, though with a short-period swell, wind swell and onshore wind.

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, 1:30 pm to 4:20 pm, lines up with weak current, though with waves and fresh wind. Also worth a look from 8:10 am to 11:10 am, with weak current and the sun high, though with waves and strong wind.

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

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 12:49–2:49 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:21–3:21 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 9:56–10:56 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 5:45–6:45 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: 3.1 mi from shore the water is still only about 23 ft deep.

From the shoreline (0.25 mi from Melekyne) out to sea, heading southeast.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep1.2 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. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 1.2 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. 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).
