Where this tide comes from

Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.8 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 7.2 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 7.2 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
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.

Waves ease over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Thursday 29: 4.5 ft with a period of 10 s, from the northwest (moderate).

Surf in Portstewart Strand today
Surf today
Good- 2.6–4.0 ft surf at the shore, a good size with some punch
- 3.1 ft swell at 8 s from the northwest, a bit short
- Light offshore wind (10 mph): it holds up and grooms the waves
- Rising tide (low tide at 2:17 pm)
- Light: First light 6:47 am · sunrise 7:25 am · sunset 4:56 pm · last light 5:34 pm
- Tide: low 1:42 am (0.9 ft), high 8:07 am (5.6 ft), low 2:17 pm (1.1 ft) and high 8:38 pm (5.2 ft). Every break has its own tide: some work at low tide and others at high tide. The tide doesn’t change the score here.
- Water at 52.5 °F: a 5/4 fullsuit with booties (and a hood if it’s windy).
- Energy: 126 kJ · Medium power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 7:00 am to 11:00 am, has a good size and light offshore wind. 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm also works, with a good size and light offshore 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.

- Water at 52.5 °F: a 7 mm semi-dry suit, with hood, gloves and booties.
- Snorkeling: better not, with these waves, wind or current.
- Night dive: dark from 5:34 pm. Waning gibbous (85%), rising at 6:18 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 7:30 am to 8:50 am, combines slack water at high tide, light wind and weak current, though with some swell. Also worth a look from 1:40 pm to 2:40 pm, with slack water at low tide, weak current and the sun high, though with moderate wind.
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.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,641 mi away and looks 32′ 45″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: high- 1:53–3:53 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:26–4:26 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 12:03–1:03 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 5:48–6:48 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.
