Where this tide comes from
Portscatho has no station of its own, so we use the tide at St Ives (Environment Agency), 22 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 flood and river level data from the real-time data API (Beta): St Ives (48160), https://environment.data.gov.uk/flood-monitoring/id/stations/48160. 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 measured tidal levels of 2025-10-29 to 2026-10-22 (353 days).
The sea at Portscatho
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.6 ft
- Significant3.2 ft
- Highest expectedHighest6.6 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 6.6 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 6.6 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
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.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Wednesday 28: 5.5 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.

Surf in Portscatho today
Surf today
Fair- 2.0–3.1 ft surf at the shore, a fun size for most surfers
- 4.0 ft swell at 9 s from the southwest, a bit short; it hits this coast at an angle
- Fresh offshore wind (18 mph): it holds up and grooms the waves
- Falling tide (low tide at 1:36 pm)
- Light: First light 6:29 am · sunrise 7:03 am · sunset 5:03 pm · last light 5:37 pm
- Tide: low 1:15 am (1.8 ft), high 6:02 am (18.1 ft), low 1:36 pm (1.7 ft) and high 6:24 pm (17.8 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 57.6 °F: a 4/3 fullsuit (booties if you run cold).
- Energy: 231 kJ · Medium power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 9:00 am to 1:00 pm, has 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.
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.
Diving in Portscatho today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: poor- Slack water around low tide (1:36 pm): little current from 12:10 pm to 1:51 pm
- 3.7 ft swell at 8 s from the southwest: some surge on the bottom
- Moderate cross-shore wind (13 mph)
- 0.2 mph current toward the southeast, weak (model)
- Sun high: more light underwater
- Slack water today: low tide 1:15 am (11:50 pm–1:30 am), high tide 6:02 am (5:47–6:20 am), low tide 1:36 pm (12:10–1:51 pm) and high tide 6:24 pm (6:09–6:40 pm)
- Likely visibility: poor. Swell (up to 6.4 ft at 9 s) and wind over the last few days have stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 57.6 °F: a 7 mm wetsuit, with hood and booties.
- Snorkeling: better not, with these waves, wind or current.
- Night dive: dark from 5:37 pm. Waning gibbous (92%), rising at 5:55 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 1:30 pm to 2:10 pm, combines slack water at low tide, weak current and the sun high, though with some swell and 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.
Never dive alone and check with the local dive shop: this rating is a guide, not a substitute for a professional.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,451 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: high- 12:43–2:43 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:14–3:14 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 9:57–10:57 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 5:25–6:25 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. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.3 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. 33 ft deep 0.5 mi from shore; 66 ft is far out (1.9 mi): for deeper dives, go by boat.
