Tides in Englewood
Today's high and low tides
- ▲ High tide 2:13 am 1.9 ft · coef. 84
- ▼ Low tide 10:24 am -0.2 ft
↑ Rising The tide is rising. 7 h 58 min to high tide at 2:53 am.
Tide coefficient 84 for the 2:13 am high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 2.1 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 15 (2.0 ft) and the lowest, on January 2 (-0.8 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 10 (coefficient 94, 1.3 ft range). The smallest, on October 18 (coefficient 38, 1.2 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Tides from the Englewood station (NOAA), 2.0 mi from Englewood. Times and heights are its predictions. It is a NOAA subordinate station: its times and heights come from the St. Petersburg reference station with the official corrections.

The sea at Englewood
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.0 ft
- Significant1.9 ft
- Highest expectedHighest4.1 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 4.1 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 4.1 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Offshore wind. The coast faces southwest and the wind blows from land out to sea: calm shore and clean waves, but watch the drift out to sea.

Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Wednesday 28: 2.1 ft with a period of 3 s, from the north-northeast (slight).

Diving in Englewood today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: good- Slack water around low tide (10:24 am): little current from 10:00 am to 10:50 am
- 0.8 ft swell at 4 s from the northwest: barely any surge
- Moderate offshore wind (17 mph): it pushes surface swimmers away from shore
- 0.4 mph current toward the south-southeast, weak (model)
- Sun high: more light underwater
- Slack water today: high tide 2:13 am (1:20–2:40 am) and low tide 10:24 am (10:00–10:50 am)
- Likely visibility: good. The sea has been calm and there's been little rain. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 77.4 °F: a 3 mm wetsuit.
- Snorkeling: doable, with some waves or wind.
- Night dive: dark from 7:13 pm. Waning gibbous (91%), rising at 8:50 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 10:10 am to 11:00 am, combines slack water at low tide, little swell, weak current and the sun high, though with moderate wind. Also worth a look from 4:10 pm to 7:10 pm, with little swell and weak current, though with moderate 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 226,429 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 2:05–4:05 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:37–4:37 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 9:52–10:52 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 8:20–9:20 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.

For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Very shallow: the water doesn't reach 16 ft within 1.1 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 1.1 mi. For deeper dives, take a boat farther out.
There is land ahead (an island, a headland or the far shore) 1.1 mi out. The profile is turned slightly from the coast so it does not run into an island or a headland.
