Tide coefficient 86 for the 7:49 am high tide and 86 for the 8:12 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 16.5 ft between the highest high and the lowest low: a large range for this place. 70 is an average tide here; 90 and above means spring tides; below 45, neap tides. What is the tide coefficient?

2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on March 21 (20.5 ft) and the lowest, on September 10 (0.4 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 9 to 11 (coefficient 89, 16.9 ft range). The smallest, on October 20 (coefficient 44, 7.8 ft).

Where this tide comes from

B · Nearby station

Burton upon Stather has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Keadby (Environment Agency), 4.5 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): Keadby (4098), https://environment.data.gov.uk/flood-monitoring/id/stations/4098. 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 (356 days).

Sea and waves

The sea at Burton upon Stather

Hourly wind

Sea state

The wave model doesn't reach Burton upon Stather: it's on inland water (an estuary, sound or sheltered bay) or far from the open sea. Wind is still available right here.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 4 mph SW · gusts 8

The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.

Cross-shore wind. The coast faces northwest and the wind blows along the shore: drift and current run parallel to the beach.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: high
  • 12:25–2:25 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 12:56–2:56 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 10:04–11:04 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 4:43–5:43 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

Shallow, gradual bottom: 0 ft at 800 ft.

From the shoreline (0.55 mi from Burton upon Stather) out to sea, heading northwest.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deepnot within 800 ft
  • 33 ft deepnot within 800 ft
  • 66 ft deepnot within 800 ft
  • 164 ft deepnot within 800 ft

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Very shallow: the water doesn't reach 16 ft within 800 ft. 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 800 ft. 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) 800 ft out.
