  • ▼ Low tide 7:41 pm 0.0 ft

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 3 h 58 min to low tide at 6:50 am.

Tide coefficient 85 for the 12:20 am high tide and 82 for the 12:45 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 4.1 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 June 14 (4.4 ft) and the lowest, on February 2 (-0.7 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 27 (coefficient 90, 4.4 ft range). The smallest, from October 18 to 19 (coefficient 40, 2.1 ft).

Where this tide comes from

A · Official station

Tides from the Tarrytown station (NOAA), 2.6 mi from South Nyack. Times and heights are its predictions. It is a NOAA subordinate station: its times and heights come from the New York (The Battery) reference station with the official corrections.

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at South Nyack

Hourly wind

Sea state

The wave model doesn't reach South Nyack: it's on inland water (an estuary, sound or sheltered bay) or far from the open sea. Wind is still available right here.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 4 mph SW · gusts 4

The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.

Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces east and the wind comes off the land at an angle: calmer water near the shore, and bait and boats drift out to sea.

Falling now (−0.05 inHg in 3 hours). It barely changes over the next 48 hours. Falling pressure: anglers say fish feed more before the change. Fast changes, either way, tend to affect fishing.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 2:34–4:34 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 3:07–5:07 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 11:14 am–12:14 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 8:00–9:00 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

Shallow, gradual

Shallow, gradual bottom: you need to go 1.6 mi out for 33 ft of water.

From the shoreline (1,100 ft from South Nyack) out to sea, heading east.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep1.4 mi
  • 33 ft deep1.6 mi
  • 66 ft deepnot within 2.5 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 2.5 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 1.4 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. Shallow near shore: you only reach 33 ft at 1.6 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, 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. There is land ahead (an island, a headland or the far shore) 2.5 mi out.
