Tides in ‘Āhuimanu
Today's high and low tides
- ▲ High tide 4:33 am 2.6 ft · coef. 87
- ▼ Low tide 11:04 am 1.2 ft
- ▲ High tide 2:11 pm 1.4 ft · coef. 82
- ▼ Low tide 9:24 pm -0.3 ft
↑ Rising The tide is rising. 7 h 28 min to high tide at 5:32 am.
Tide coefficient 87 for the 4:33 am high tide and 82 for the 2:11 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 3.0 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 July 13 (2.9 ft) and the lowest, on May 17 (-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 24 to 26 (coefficient 104, 2.9 ft range). The smallest, from October 17 to 18 (coefficient 20, 1.4 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Tides from the Moku O Loe station (NOAA), 3.2 mi from ‘Āhuimanu. Times and heights are its predictions.

The sea at ‘Āhuimanu
Sea stateSea state: moderate
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common2.4 ft
- Significant4.8 ft
- Highest expectedHighest9.5 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 9.5 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 9.5 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Onshore wind. The coast faces northeast 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 stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Wednesday 28: 4.9 ft with a period of 10 s, from the south (moderate).
Water temperature
Water temperature →Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water cools over the next few days: about 77.8 °F by Tuesday 3.

Surf in ‘Āhuimanu today
Surf today
Fair- 1.3–2.1 ft surf at the shore, a fun size for most surfers
- 3.5 ft swell at 11 s from the south, average; this coast faces away from it
- Almost no wind (2 mph): glassy water
- Rising tide (high tide at 2:11 pm)
- Light: First light 6:10 am · sunrise 6:33 am · sunset 5:57 pm · last light 6:20 pm
- Tide: high 4:33 am (2.6 ft), low 11:04 am (1.2 ft), high 2:11 pm (1.4 ft) and low 9:24 pm (-0.3 ft). Every break has its own tide: some work at low tide and others at high tide. The tide doesn’t change the score here.
- Water at 78.6 °F: boardshorts or a swimsuit and a rash guard.
- Energy: 258 kJ · Medium power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 10:00 am to 2:00 pm, has glassy water.
An estimate for this stretch of coast, not for a specific break: every beach or reef works its own way (its tide, bottom and angle). Check it when you get there.
Follow the flags and the lifeguards, and don’t paddle out if the surf is above your level: this score is a guide, not a substitute for what you see when you get there.
Diving in ‘Āhuimanu today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: poor- Slack water around low tide (11:04 am): little current from 10:20 am to 12:30 pm
- Slack water around high tide (2:11 pm): little current from 12:50 pm to 2:50 pm
- 3.5 ft swell at 11 s from the south: strong surge on the bottom
- Almost no wind

- Likely visibility: poor. Swell (up to 3.8 ft at 11 s) and rain (2.99 in) over the last few days have stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 78.6 °F: a 3 mm wetsuit.
- Snorkeling: better not, with these waves, wind or current.
- Night dive: dark from 6:20 pm. Waning gibbous (90%), rising at 8:20 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 10:20 am to 1:20 pm, combines slack water at low tide, 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.

The moon in ‘Āhuimanu
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,436 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:21–3:21 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:53–3:53 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 8:54–9:54 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 7:50–8:50 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. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.35 mi): cast far from the beach and fish the high tide, when there is more water close in.
- Swimming. A very gentle way in with plenty of shallow water, good for kids. At low tide the water can be far out.
- Diving. 33 ft deep 0.35 mi from shore; 66 ft is far out (beyond 3.1 mi): for deeper dives, go by boat.
