Tides in Perryville
Today's high and low tides
- ▼ Low tide 7:30 am 0.1 ft
- ▲ Next high tide 12:47 pm 1.7 ft · coef. 77
- ▼ Low tide 6:47 pm 0.1 ft
↑ Rising The tide is rising. 4 h 37 min to high tide at 12:47 pm.
Tide coefficient 77 for the 12:47 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 1.6 ft between the highest high and the lowest low: an average 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 May 18 (3.1 ft) and the lowest, on January 4 (-0.5 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 9 to 11 (coefficient 82, 2.6 ft range). The smallest, from October 18 to 20 (coefficient 53, 1.7 ft).

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,746 mi away and looks 32′ 44″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 2:43–4:43 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 3:16–5:16 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 11:16 am–12:16 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 8:15–9:15 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.

Water depth
Deepens quicklyThe bottom deepens quickly: 33 ft of water 0.25 mi from shore.
From the shoreline (0.45 mi from Perryville) out to sea, heading south.
How far from shore
- 16 ft deep1,150 ft
- 33 ft deep0.25 mi
- 66 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
- 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. 33 ft of water just 0.25 mi from shore: a good cast reaches deep water. Current and surf hit harder here.
- Swimming. The water gets deeper little by little, but a few dozen yards out you can no longer stand.
- Diving. 33 ft deep 0.25 mi from shore; 66 ft is far out (beyond 3.1 mi): for deeper dives, go by boat.
Inside bays, estuaries and harbors the bottom changes a lot from spot to spot (channels and shoals): use this only as a rough guide. The profile is turned slightly from the coast so it does not run into an island or a headland.
