↓ Falling The tide is falling. 24 min to low tide at 6:19 pm.
Tide coefficient 87 for the 11:47 am high tide and 85 for the 11:52 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 1.4 ft between the highest high and the lowest low: a small 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 October 27 (1.4 ft) and the lowest, on June 15 (-0.6 ft).
Semidiurnal: two high and two low tides a day, of similar height.
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 26 to 28 (coefficient 89, 1.4 ft range). The smallest, from October 18 to 19 (coefficient 41, 0.1 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Tides from the Port Salerno station (NOAA), 0.6 mi from Port Salerno. Times and heights are its predictions. It is a NOAA subordinate station: its times and heights come from the Government Cut reference station with the official corrections.

The sea at Port Salerno
Sea stateSea state: moderate
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common3.1 ft
- Significant6.1 ft
- Highest expectedHighest12 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 12 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 12 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Onshore wind. The coast faces east and the wind blows straight in from the sea: more surf and backwash at the shore, and bait and boats drift toward land.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves ease over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Wednesday 28: 8.7 ft with a period of 10 s, from the east-northeast (rough).
Water temperature
Water temperature →The satellite measured 3.6 °F more yesterday than the model gives now: the water is probably warmer than the forecast says.
Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water warms over the next few days: about 81.6 °F by Tuesday 3.
Water colder than normal for late October (−3.0 °F).

- Likely visibility: poor. Swell (up to 7.8 ft at 9 s) and rain (1.89 in) over the last few days have stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 77.4 °F: a 3 mm wetsuit.
- Snorkeling: better not, with these waves, wind or current.
- Night dive: dark from 7:04 pm. Waning gibbous (91%), rising at 8:41 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 12:30 pm to 3:30 pm, combines slack water at high tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high, though with a big 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.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,429 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:56–3:56 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:28–4:28 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 9:43–10:43 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 8:11–9:11 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.
