2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on March 20 (18.6 ft) and the lowest, on August 15 (1.0 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 26 to 28 (coefficient 97, 16.1 ft range). The smallest, on October 20 (coefficient 32, 5.5 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Landrake has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Plymouth (Environment Agency), 6.0 mi away. On the open coast the difference is usually a few minutes and inches; inside estuaries, rivers and enclosed bays it can be much larger.
Station data attribution: This uses Environment Agency tide gauge data from the real-time data API (Beta): Plymouth (E72124), https://environment.data.gov.uk/flood-monitoring/id/stations/E72124. Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0 (https://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/doc/open-government-licence/version/3/). Modified: harmonic constants fitted by TidePlanet from the 15-minute sea levels of 2025-10-29 to 2026-10-22 (356 days).
The sea at Landrake
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.8 ft
- Significant3.5 ft
- Highest expectedHighest7.1 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 7.1 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 7.1 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Offshore wind. The coast faces south and the wind blows from land out to sea: calm shore and clean waves, but watch the drift out to sea.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves ease over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Wednesday 28: 5.8 ft with a period of 9 s, from the southwest (moderate).
Water temperature
Water temperature →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.

Likely visibility: poor- Slack water around low tide (1:01 pm): little current from 12:46 pm to 1:16 pm
- 4.3 ft swell at 7 s from the southwest: strong surge on the bottom
- Light onshore wind (7 mph)
- 0.6 mph current toward the west (model)
- Sun high: more light underwater
- Slack water today: low tide 12:40 am (12:25–12:55 am), high tide 6:47 am (6:10–7:20 am), low tide 1:01 pm (12:46–1:16 pm) and high tide 7:08 pm (6:30–7:40 pm)
- Likely visibility: poor. Swell (up to 6.4 ft at 9 s) and rain (0.42 in) over the last few days have stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 58.8 °F: a 7 mm wetsuit, with hood and booties.
- Snorkeling: better not, with these waves, wind or current.
- Night dive: dark from 5:34 pm. Waning gibbous (92%), rising at 5:51 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 12:20 pm to 1:50 pm, combines slack water at low tide, light wind and the sun high, though with some swell and current. Also worth a look from 7:00 am to 8:10 am, with slack water at high tide, light wind and weak current, though with some swell.
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.

The moon in Landrake
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,451 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: high- 12:40–2:40 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:11–3:11 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 9:56–10:56 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 5:21–6:21 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.

For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Very shallow: the water doesn't reach 16 ft within 0.75 mi. Cast far from the beach, ideally around high tide.
- 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 0.75 mi. For deeper dives, take a boat farther out.
Inside bays, estuaries and harbors the bottom changes a lot from spot to spot (channels and shoals): use this only as a rough guide. There is land ahead (an island, a headland or the far shore) 0.75 mi out.
