Today's high and low tides

  • ▲ High tide 2:24 am 5.8 ft · coef. 88
  • ▼ Low tide 7:25 am 2.8 ft
  • ▲ High tide 1:21 pm 8.1 ft · coef. 86

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 2 h 51 min to low tide at 8:39 pm.

Tide coefficient 88 for the 2:24 am high tide and 86 for the 1:21 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 9.5 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 December 24 (8.9 ft) and the lowest, on June 16 (-2.3 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 8 to 11 (coefficient 90, 7.9 ft range). The smallest, on October 18 (coefficient 36, 4.8 ft).

Where this tide comes from

A · Official station

Tides from the Hookton Slough station (NOAA), 1.5 mi from Beatrice. Times and heights are its predictions. It is a NOAA subordinate station: its times and heights come from the Humboldt Bay (North Spit) reference station with the official corrections.

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Beatrice

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: moderate

Moderate Douglas 4 · gentle breeze, Beaufort 3
Waves 5.4 ft · 9.7 s from the northwest (308°)
Swell 4.3 ft · 6.5 s from the northwest
Current 0.2 mph toward the WSW

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common2.7 ft
  • Significant5.4 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest11 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 11 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 11 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 7 mph N · gusts 17
Offshore (6.1 mi NNW)Offshore 11 mph N · gusts 19

Onshore wind. The coast faces northwest and the wind blows straight in from the sea: more surf and backwash at the shore, and bait and boats drift toward land.

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 warmer than normal for late October (+3.4 °F).

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 12:20 pm to 2:20 pm, combines slack water at high tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high, though with some swell.

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: medium
  • 2:00–4:00 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:32–4:32 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 10:33–11:33 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:29–8:29 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

Very shallow

Very shallow and flat: even 2.8 mi from shore the water is less than 16 ft deep.

From the shoreline (1.9 mi from Beatrice) out to sea, heading northwest.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deepnot within 2.8 mi
  • 33 ft deepnot within 2.8 mi
  • 66 ft deepnot within 2.8 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 2.8 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Very shallow: the water doesn't reach 16 ft within 2.8 mi. 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 2.8 mi. 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) 2.8 mi out.
