Tides in Hana
Today's high and low tides
- ▲ High tide 4:51 am 2.9 ft · coef. 90
- ▼ Low tide 10:53 am 0.6 ft
- ▲ High tide 3:12 pm 1.6 ft · coef. 84
- ▼ Next low tide 9:35 pm -0.2 ft
↓ Falling The tide is falling. 3 h 16 min to low tide at 9:35 pm.
Tide coefficient 90 for the 4:51 am high tide and 84 for the 3:12 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 3.1 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 July 14 (3.2 ft) and the lowest, on December 23 (-0.4 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 25 to 26 (coefficient 106, 3.1 ft range). The smallest, from October 17 to 18 (coefficient 20, 1.8 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Tides from the Hana station (NOAA), 0.3 mi from Hana. Times and heights are its predictions. It is a NOAA subordinate station: its times and heights come from the Kahului reference station with the official corrections.

The sea at Hana
Sea stateSea state: moderate
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common2.3 ft
- Significant4.6 ft
- Highest expectedHighest9.3 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 9.3 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 9.3 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.
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 stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Thursday 29: 5.0 ft with a period of 9 s, from the east-southeast (moderate).
Water temperature

Surf in Hana today
Surf today
Poor- 2.1–3.2 ft surf at the shore, a fun size for most surfers
- 2.8 ft swell at 6 s from the east, short: weak, messy waves
- Light onshore wind (8 mph): a bit of chop
- Rising tide (high tide at 3:12 pm)
- Light: First light 6:02 am · sunrise 6:25 am · sunset 5:51 pm · last light 6:13 pm
- Tide: high 4:51 am (2.9 ft), low 10:53 am (0.6 ft), high 3:12 pm (1.6 ft) and low 9:35 pm (-0.2 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 80.4 °F: boardshorts or a swimsuit and a rash guard.
- Energy: 45 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 12:00 pm to 3:00 pm, has a good size, though with a short-period swell. 6:02 am to 10:00 am can also work, with a good size, though with a short-period swell, onshore wind and thunderstorms.
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 Hana today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: poor- Some tidal current
- 4.3 ft waves: careful getting in and out
- Light onshore wind (8 mph)
- 1.0 mph current toward the east-northeast (model)

- Likely visibility: poor. Swell (up to 2.7 ft at 11 s) and rain (2.28 in) over the last few days have stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 80.4 °F: a shorty or a rash guard.
- Snorkeling: better not, with these waves, wind or current.
- Night dive: dark from 6:13 pm. Waning gibbous (90%), rising at 8:14 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 11:30 am to 12:10 pm, combines light wind and the sun high, though with tidal current, waves, current and heavy rain. Also worth a look from 1:10 pm to 2:30 pm, with light wind and the sun high, though with tidal current, waves, current and heavy rain.
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 Hana
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,436 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:13–3:13 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:45–3:45 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 8:44–9:44 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 7:44–8:44 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 0.5 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. Shallow near shore: you only reach 33 ft at 0.65 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, go by boat.
