Where this tide comes from
Bigbury on Sea has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Plymouth (Environment Agency), 14 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 Bigbury on Sea
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.8 ft
- Significant3.6 ft
- Highest expectedHighest7.2 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
Onshore wind. The coast faces southwest and the wind blows straight in from the sea: more surf and backwash at the shore, and bait and boats drift toward land.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Thursday 29: 3.7 ft with a period of 9 s, from the southwest (slight).
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 Bigbury on Sea today
Surf today
Good- 2.3–3.5 ft surf at the shore, a fun size for most surfers
- 2.7 ft swell at 8 s from the southwest, a bit short
- Light offshore wind (5 mph): it holds up and grooms the waves
- First or last light of the day
- Rising tide (low tide at 1:42 pm)
- Light: First light 6:27 am · sunrise 7:01 am · sunset 4:57 pm · last light 5:31 pm
- Tide: low 1:20 am (2.4 ft), high 7:26 am (17.8 ft), low 1:42 pm (2.5 ft) and high 7:50 pm (17.1 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 59.2 °F: a 4/3 fullsuit (booties if you run cold).
- Energy: 84 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 6:27 am to 10:00 am, 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 Bigbury on Sea today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: fair- Slack water around high tide (7:26 am): little current from 6:40 am to 8:00 am
- 2.5 ft swell at 8 s from the west-southwest: some surge on the bottom
- Light offshore wind (5 mph)
- 0.2 mph current toward the east-southeast, weak (model)
- Daylight
- Slack water today: low tide 1:20 am (1:05–1:35 am), high tide 7:26 am (6:40–8:00 am), low tide 1:42 pm (1:27–2:00 pm) and high tide 7:50 pm (7:00–8:30 pm)
- Likely visibility: fair. Swell (up to 5.6 ft at 9 s) over the last few days has stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 59.2 °F: a 7 mm wetsuit, with hood and booties.
- Snorkeling: doable, with some waves or wind.
- Night dive: dark from 5:31 pm. Waning gibbous (85%), rising at 6:47 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 7:30 am to 9:40 am, combines slack water at high tide, light wind and weak current. Also worth a look from 1:10 pm to 2:10 pm, with slack water at low 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.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,641 mi away and looks 32′ 45″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:42–3:42 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:14–4:14 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 11:10 am–12:10 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 6:17–7:17 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
Deepens quicklyThe bottom deepens quickly: 33 ft of water 700 ft from shore.
From the shoreline (0.5 mi from Bigbury on Sea) out to sea, heading southwest.
How far from shore
- 16 ft deep360 ft
- 33 ft deep700 ft
- 66 ft deep0.45 mi
- 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 14 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. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 700 ft and 66 ft at 0.45 mi from shore.
Right by the shore the bottom may drop even faster than shown.
