Your day at a glance
The best window, 11:10 am to 12:20 pm, combines the 11:24 am high tide, moonset, falling pressure, a light onshore breeze and some swell. Also worth a try from 5:40 pm to 6:20 pm, with the 6:39 pm low tide, sunset, falling pressure and some swell, though with moderate wind. Also good from 3:00 pm to 4:40 pm, with a major period, falling pressure, a light onshore breeze and some swell.
Species with the most records nearby: winter flounder, summer flounder, longfin inshore squid and scup. October is one of the months when these are seen most: summer flounder and longfin inshore squid. What you can catch

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 3 h 14 min to high tide at 11:24 am.
Tide coefficient 82 for the 11:24 am high tide and 79 for the 11:58 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 0.9 ft between the highest high and the lowest low: a small 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 14 (1.0 ft) and the lowest, on February 2 (-0.2 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 27 (coefficient 90, 1.0 ft range). The smallest, from October 18 to 19 (coefficient 41, 0.5 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Tides from the Fire Island Light station (NOAA), 0.4 mi from Lighthouse Beach. Times and heights are its predictions. It is a NOAA subordinate station: its times and heights come from the Sandy Hook reference station with the official corrections.

The sea at Lighthouse Beach
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common0.9 ft
- Significant1.8 ft
- Highest expectedHighest3.7 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 3.7 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 3.7 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Onshore wind. The coast faces south 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 4: 3.2 ft with a period of 8 s, from the south-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.
Water warmer than normal for late October (+0.9 °F).

Surf in Lighthouse Beach today
Surf today
Poor- 1.3–2.0 ft surf at the shore, a fun size for most surfers
- 1.5 ft swell at 6 s from the east-southeast, short: weak, messy waves
- Almost no wind (4 mph): glassy water
- Rising tide (high tide at 11:24 am)
- Light: First light 6:51 am · sunrise 7:20 am · sunset 5:53 pm · last light 6:21 pm
- Tide: low 5:48 am (0.0 ft), high 11:24 am (0.9 ft), low 6:39 pm (-0.0 ft) and high 11:58 pm (0.7 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 60.1 °F: a 4/3 fullsuit.
- Energy: 16 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 9:00 am to 12:00 pm, has glassy water, though with a short-period swell. 7:00 am to 8:00 am can also work, 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.
Diving in Lighthouse Beach today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: good- Slack water around high tide (11:24 am): little current from 10:00 am to 12:50 pm
- 1.6 ft swell at 6 s from the east-southeast: some surge on the bottom
- Almost no wind
- 0.2 mph current toward the east, weak (model)
- Daylight
- Slack water today: high tide 10:58 pm (9:30 pm–12:20 am), low tide 5:48 am (4:20–7:10 am), high tide 11:24 am (10:00 am–12:50 pm), low tide 6:39 pm (5:10–8:00 pm) and high tide 11:58 pm (10:30 pm–1:20 am)
- Likely visibility: good. Swell (up to 2.5 ft at 7 s) over the last few days has stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 60.1 °F: a 7 mm wetsuit, with hood and booties.
- Snorkeling: doable, with some waves or wind.
- Night dive: dark from 6:21 pm. Waning gibbous (84%), rising at 8:29 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 7:30 am to 10:30 am, combines slack water at high tide, light wind and weak current. Also good from 3:30 pm to 5:30 pm, with slack water at low tide, light wind and weak current.
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 226,746 mi away and looks 32′ 44″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 2:31–4:31 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 3:04–5:04 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 11:09 am–12:09 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 7:59–8:59 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 0.25 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 0.55 mi from shore; 66 ft is far out (2.6 mi): for deeper dives, go by boat.
