Today's high and low tides

  • ▲ High tide 8:48 am 7.5 ft · coef. 105
  • ▼ Low tide 4:57 pm 1.4 ft

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 11 min to high tide at 9:05 pm.

Tide coefficient 105 for the 8:48 am high tide and 102 for the 9:05 pm high tide. Big spring tides. The water rises and falls 6.1 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 November 26 (7.6 ft) and the lowest, on July 16 (0.2 ft).

Semidiurnal: two high and two low tides a day, of similar height.

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)

Tide coefficient and range in October

The biggest tides of the month came from October 27 to 28 (coefficient 106, 6.1 ft range). The smallest, on October 18 (coefficient 29, 2.0 ft).

Where this tide comes from

Tides from the Bournemouth station (Environment Agency), 3.2 mi from Parkstone. Times and heights are its predictions.

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Parkstone

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: slight

Slight Douglas 3 · gentle breeze, Beaufort 3
Waves 2.6 ft · 7.3 s from the west-southwest (237°)
Swell 2.4 ft · 5.9 s from the southwest
Current 1.5 mph toward the NE

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common1.3 ft
  • Significant2.6 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest5.3 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 5.3 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 5.3 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 2 mph SSW · gusts 4
Offshore (16 mi S)Offshore 12 mph WSW · gusts 17

Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces southeast and the wind comes in from the sea at an angle: a bit more surf at the shore and drift along the coast, toward land.

Waves ease over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Wednesday 28: 4.1 ft with a period of 8 s, from the west-southwest (slight).

Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water cools over the next few days: about 57.6 °F by Tuesday 3.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+1.2 °F).

Today’s surf at a glance

The best window, 6:18 am to 7:00 am, has glassy water, though with wind swell. 11:00 am to 1:00 pm can also work, with light offshore wind, though with wind swell.

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, 9:30 am to 10:10 am, combines slack water at high tide, 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.

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: high
  • 12:30–2:30 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:01–3:01 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 9:48–10:48 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 5:09–6:09 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

Shallow, gradual

Shallow, gradual bottom: you need to go 1.2 mi out for 33 ft of water.

From the shoreline (2.2 mi from Parkstone) out to sea, heading southeast.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep1,050 ft
  • 33 ft deep1.2 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 1,050 ft): 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 near shore: you only reach 33 ft at 1.2 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, go by boat.
