Where this tide comes from
Errol has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global FES2022 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 3.1 mi away). It may differ from the real tide by a few minutes and inches, and more with wind or storms. Heights are above mean sea level, not chart datum, so low tides are negative. Not for navigation.
Model attribution: FES2022 Tide was produced by LEGOS, NOVELTIS and CLS, funded by CNES, and distributed by AVISO (https://doi.org/10.24400/527896/a01-2024.004), AVISO licence (https://www.aviso.altimetry.fr/fileadmin/documents/data/License_Aviso.pdf). Modified by TidePlanet: constants interpolated from the nearest model cells offshore; heights above mean sea level.
The sea at Errol
Sea stateSea state: smooth
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common0.4 ft
- Significant0.8 ft
- Highest expectedHighest1.7 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 1.7 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 1.7 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.
Cross-shore wind. The coast faces southeast 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: 2.2 ft with a period of 3 s, from the southwest (slight).
Water temperature

Diving in Errol today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: good- Slack water around high tide (1:00 pm): little current from 12:30 pm to 1:30 pm
- 0.3 ft swell at 3 s from the south-southwest: barely any surge
- Moderate offshore wind (16 mph): it pushes surface swimmers away from shore
- 0.1 mph current toward the south, weak (model)
- Sun high: more light underwater
- Slack water today: high tide 12:31 am (12:10–1:00 am), low tide 7:14 am (6:50–7:40 am), high tide 1:00 pm (12:30–1:30 pm) and low tide 7:28 pm (7:00–7:50 pm)
- Likely visibility: good. Wind over the last few days has stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 53.8 °F: a 7 mm semi-dry suit, with hood, gloves and booties.
- Snorkeling: doable, with some waves or wind.
- Night dive: dark from 5:19 pm. Waning gibbous (92%), rising at 4:58 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 11:50 am to 2:00 pm, combines slack water at high tide, little swell, weak current and the sun high, though with moderate wind. Also worth a look from 7:10 am to 8:30 am, with slack water at low tide, little swell and weak current, though with moderate wind. Also worth a look from 3:00 pm to 4:30 pm, with little swell, light wind and weak current, though with tidal 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.
Never dive alone and check with the local dive shop: this rating is a guide, not a substitute for a professional.

The moon in Errol
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,451 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: high- 12:35–2:35 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:07–3:07 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 10:39–11:39 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 4:28–5:28 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.
