Tides in Tyndall Air Force Base
Today's high and low tides
- ▲ High tide 1:06 am 2.3 ft · coef. 114
- ▼ Next low tide 1:15 pm -0.1 ft
↓ Falling The tide is falling. 9 h 55 min to low tide at 1:15 pm.
Tide coefficient 114 for the 1:06 am high tide. Big spring tides. The water rises and falls 2.3 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 October 3 (2.3 ft) and the lowest, on January 3 (-1.1 ft).
Diurnal: one high and one low tide a day most days.
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 come from October 29 to 30 (coefficient 116, 2.4 ft range). The smallest, on October 8 (coefficient 20, 0.2 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Tides from the Parker station (NOAA), 2.9 mi from Tyndall Air Force Base. Times and heights are its predictions. It is a NOAA subordinate station: its times and heights come from the Pensacola reference station with the official corrections.

The sea at Tyndall Air Force Base
Sea stateSea state: smooth
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common0.4 ft
- Significant0.8 ft
- Highest expectedHighest1.8 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 1.8 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 1.8 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.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Sunday 1: 1.6 ft with a period of 4 s, from the east-southeast (smooth).

Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 12:10 pm to 2:20 pm, combines slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high.
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 226,775 mi away and looks 32′ 44″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 2:23–4:23 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:55–4:55 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 10:23–11:23 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 8:29–9:29 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.

For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Very shallow: the water doesn't reach 16 ft within 0.45 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 0.45 mi. For deeper dives, take a boat farther out.
There is little open water ahead: in a cove or small bay, cells of about 300 ft cannot show the bottom well near the rocks. There is land ahead (an island, a headland or the far shore) 0.45 mi out.
