  • Major period 3:51–5:51 pm
  • Sunset at 6:50 pm, golden hour from 5:49 pm
  • Pressure dropping fast (−0.39 inHg in 24 h): bad weather on the way, moderate offshore wind (14 mph) and some swell (2.4 ft waves) to stir the water
  • Waning gibbous: a bit more activity than at the quarters

  • A major period lines up with sunset

Your day at a glance

The best window, 4:30 pm to 6:00 pm, combines the 5:04 pm high tide, a major period, sunset and some swell, though with moderate wind. Also worth a try from 3:20 am to 4:50 am, with the 3:55 am high tide, a major period, falling pressure and some swell, though with fresh wind. Also good from 7:00 pm to 7:40 pm, with moonrise, sunset and some swell.

Today's high and low tides

  • ▲ High tide 3:55 am 11.4 ft · coef. 73
  • ▼ Low tide 10:28 am -0.4 ft

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 1 h 22 min to high tide at 5:04 pm.

Tide coefficient 73 for the 3:55 am high tide and 74 for the 5:04 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 16.7 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 June 17 (17.8 ft) and the lowest, on January 3 (-2.5 ft).

Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.

Heights above mean lower low water (MLLW), the zero of US nautical charts. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. MLLW

Tide coefficient and range in October

The biggest tides of the month came from October 5 to 10 (coefficient 79, 15.5 ft range). The smallest, from October 17 to 21 (coefficient 55, 12.2 ft).

Sea and waves

The sea at Egegik

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: slight

Slight Douglas 3 · fresh breeze, Beaufort 5
Waves 2.7 ft · 5.9 s from the south (187°)
Swell 1.6 ft · 9.3 s from the west-southwest
Current 0.2 mph toward the SE

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common1.3 ft
  • Significant2.7 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest5.5 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 5.5 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 5.5 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 20 mph SSE · gusts 37
Offshore (5.1 mi WNW)Offshore 20 mph SSE · gusts 32

Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces west and the wind comes off the land at an angle: calmer water near the shore, and bait and boats drift out to sea.

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.

Water about normal for late October.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 5:30 pm to 6:10 pm, lines up with light wind, 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.

Never dive alone and check with the local dive shop: this rating is a guide, not a substitute for a professional.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: high
  • 3:19–5:19 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 3:51–5:51 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 1:56–2:56 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 6:41–7:41 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.
