Tide coefficient 98 for the 2:01 am high tide and 95 for the 1:32 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 6.0 ft between the highest high and the lowest low: a large range for this place. 70 is an average tide here; 90 and above means spring tides; below 45, neap tides. What is the tide coefficient?

2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on December 26 (3.5 ft) and the lowest, on December 25 (-3.4 ft).

Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.

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

Tide coefficient and range in October

Where this tide comes from

M · Global model

Deira has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global FES2022 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 2.0 mi away). It may differ from the real tide by a few minutes and inches, and more with wind or storms. Heights are above mean sea level, not chart datum, so low tides are negative. Not for navigation.

Model 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). Modified by TidePlanet: constants interpolated from the nearest model cells offshore; heights above mean sea level.

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Deira

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · light air, Beaufort 1
Waves 0.7 ft · 3.4 s from the north (3°)
Swell 0.5 ft · 3.1 s from the north-northeast
Current 0.7 mph toward the SW

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.3 ft
  • Significant0.7 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest1.4 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 1.4 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 1.4 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 4 mph SE · gusts 6
Offshore (3.6 mi WSW)Offshore 3 mph ESE · gusts 6

Offshore wind. The coast faces west 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 (+3.9 °F).

The best window, 6:01 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, 6:20 am to 8:10 am, combines slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind and weak current. Also worth a look from 1:00 pm to 2:10 pm, with slack water at high tide, little swell, light wind and the sun high, though with current.

Slack water comes from the tide: in inlets, channels and between islands the water can keep running for an hour or two after. Ask the local dive shop.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 1:34–3:34 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:06–4:06 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 9:19–10:19 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:53–8:53 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

Drops off fast

The bottom drops off fast: the water is 33 ft deep just 150 ft from shore.

From the shoreline (1.1 mi from Deira) out to sea, heading west.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep80 ft
  • 33 ft deep150 ft
  • 66 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 41 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. 33 ft deep 150 ft from shore; 66 ft is far out (beyond 3.1 mi): for deeper dives, go by boat.

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

Source: NOAA ETOPO 2022 (CC0), cells of about 0.3 mi; depth below mean sea level. For reference only: not for navigation or anchoring.
