Where this tide comes from
Heddon's Mouth has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Ilfracombe (Environment Agency), 8.0 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): Ilfracombe (E72424), https://environment.data.gov.uk/flood-monitoring/id/stations/E72424. 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 Heddon's Mouth
Sea stateSea state: moderate
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common2.9 ft
- Significant5.7 ft
- Highest expectedHighest12 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 12 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 12 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-shore wind. The coast faces northwest and the wind blows along the shore: drift and current run parallel to the beach.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves ease over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Wednesday 28: 9.6 ft with a period of 9 s, from the west (rough).

Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 8:00 am to 10:00 am, has a good size, though with big surf, wind swell and cross-shore wind. 6:27 am to 7:00 am can also work, with a good size, though with big surf, wind swell and cross-shore wind. 4:00 pm to 5:31 pm can also work, with a good size, though with big surf and cross-shore 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 Heddon's Mouth today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: poor- Slack water around low tide (12:55 pm): little current from 12:30 pm to 1:20 pm
- 6.1 ft swell at 9 s from the west: strong surge on the bottom
- Fresh onshore wind (22 mph)
- 0.2 mph current toward the north-northwest, weak (model)
- Sun high: more light underwater
Not a day for shore diving: swell, wind, current or storms during the best window. If you go, go with a dive shop and only if they give the OK.
- Slack water today: low tide 12:35 am (12:10–1:00 am), high tide 6:54 am (6:39–7:10 am), low tide 12:55 pm (12:30–1:20 pm) and high tide 7:18 pm (7:00–7:40 pm)
- Likely visibility: poor. Swell (up to 7.4 ft at 10 s) and wind 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 5:31 pm. Waning gibbous (92%), rising at 5:44 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 12:30 pm to 1:30 pm, combines slack water at low tide, weak current and the sun high, though with a big swell and fresh 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- 12:38–2:38 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:10–3:10 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 10:00–11:00 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 5:14–6:14 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 0.25 mi from shore.
From the shoreline out to sea, heading northwest.
How far from shore
- 16 ft deep290 ft
- 33 ft deep0.25 mi
- 66 ft deep1 mi
- 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 20 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. 33 ft deep 0.25 mi from shore; 66 ft is far out (1 mi): for deeper dives, go by boat.
Right by the shore the bottom may drop even faster than shown.
