↑ Rising The tide is rising. 4 h 39 min to high tide at 1:20 am.
Tide coefficient 83 for the 12:30 am high tide and 82 for the 12:43 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 9.6 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 May 16 (9.4 ft) and the lowest, on February 1 (-1.2 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 25 to 28 (coefficient 84, 9.7 ft range). The smallest, from October 18 to 19 (coefficient 48, 5.4 ft).

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,429 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:30–3:30 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity

- 10:02–11:02 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 6:58–7:58 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
Gentle slopeThe bottom slopes gently: 16 ft deep 1,250 ft from shore and 33 ft at 0.35 mi. Right off the beach it already drops to about 14 ft.
From the shoreline (2.1 mi from Pelham) out to sea, heading east.
How far from shore
- 16 ft deep1,250 ft
- 33 ft deep0.35 mi
- 66 ft deep2.2 mi
- 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 14 ft just 330 ft out. Good for casting from rocks, jetties or the beach itself; current and surf hit harder here.
- 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 0.35 mi from shore; 66 ft is far out (2.2 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.
