Tides in Amagansett
Today's high and low tides
- ▼ Low tide 2:41 am -0.3 ft
- ▲ High tide 9:34 am 4.0 ft · coef. 90
- ▼ Low tide 3:27 pm -0.2 ft
- ▲ High tide 10:02 pm 3.2 ft · coef. 88
↓ Falling The tide is falling. 5 h 21 min to low tide at 3:29 am.
Tide coefficient 90 for the 9:34 am high tide and 88 for the 10:02 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 4.3 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 June 15 (4.2 ft) and the lowest, on December 25 (-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 92, 4.3 ft range). The smallest, from October 18 to 19 (coefficient 40, 2.0 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Amagansett has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Shinnecock Inlet (Ocean, NOAA), 20 mi away. On the open coast the difference is usually a few minutes and inches; inside estuaries, rivers and enclosed bays it can be much larger.

The sea at Amagansett
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.0 ft
- Significant1.9 ft
- Highest expectedHighest3.9 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 3.9 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 3.9 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.
Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces southeast and the wind comes in from the sea at an angle: a bit more surf at the shore and drift along the coast, toward land.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Wednesday 28: 2.6 ft with a period of 9 s, from the east-southeast (slight).
Water temperature
Water temperature →Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water is steady these days, with no sudden changes.

Surf in Amagansett today
Surf today
Fair- 1.9–3.0 ft surf at the shore, a fun size for most surfers
- 2.4 ft swell at 8 s from the southeast, short: weak, messy waves
- Light offshore wind (6 mph): it holds up and grooms the waves
- Rising tide (high tide at 9:34 am)
- Light: First light 6:46 am · sunrise 7:15 am · sunset 5:49 pm · last light 6:18 pm
- Tide: low 2:41 am (-0.3 ft), high 9:34 am (4.0 ft), low 3:27 pm (-0.2 ft) and high 10:02 pm (3.2 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 60.4 °F: a 4/3 fullsuit.
- Energy: 59 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 7:00 am to 9:00 am, has a good size and light offshore wind, though with a short-period swell. 10:00 am to 12:00 pm can also work, with a good size and light offshore wind, though with a short-period swell. 5:00 pm to 6:00 pm can also work, with glassy water, though with a short-period swell.
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.

Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 9:00 am to 10:20 am, combines slack water at high tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 2:40 pm to 4:10 pm, with slack water at low tide, 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.

The moon in Amagansett
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,429 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:23–3:23 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:55–3:55 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 9:55–10:55 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 6:51–7:51 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

For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. About 11 ft of water 330 ft out: long casts help, and so does a rising tide, which brings fish closer in.
- Swimming. The bottom drops quickly near the shore and you are soon out of your depth. Keep an eye on kids and weak swimmers.
- Diving. 33 ft deep 0.4 mi from shore; 66 ft is far out (2.4 mi): for deeper dives, go by boat.
