Tides in Sagaponack
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
- ▲ Next high tide 10:02 pm 3.2 ft · coef. 88
↑ Rising The tide is rising. 3 h 4 min to high tide at 10:02 pm.
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
Sagaponack has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Shinnecock Inlet (Ocean, NOAA), 12 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 Sagaponack
Sea stateSea state: smooth
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common0.6 ft
- Significant1.2 ft
- Highest expectedHighest2.4 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 2.4 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 2.4 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 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 Friday 30: 1.9 ft with a period of 4 s, from the west-northwest (slight).
Water temperature

Surf in Sagaponack today
Surf today
Poor- 1.1–1.8 ft surf at the shore, small: good for learning or a longboard
- 1.2 ft swell at 8 s from the southeast, short: weak, messy waves
- Light offshore wind (5 mph): it holds up and grooms the waves
- Rising tide (high tide at 9:34 am)
- Light: First light 6:47 am · sunrise 7:15 am · sunset 5:50 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 60.8 °F: a 4/3 fullsuit.
- Energy: 16 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 7:00 am to 11:00 am, has light offshore wind, though with a short-period swell. 5:00 pm to 6:00 pm can also work, with glassy water, though with small waves and 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, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 2:40 pm to 4:10 pm, with slack water at low tide, little swell, 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.

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
- 6:52–7:52 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 0.45 mi from shore; 66 ft is far out (1.9 mi): for deeper dives, go by boat.
