Your day at a glance

The best window, 5:40 pm to 6:40 pm, combines the 6:06 pm low tide, sunset and some swell. Also worth a try from 10:10 am to 10:50 am, with the 11:08 am high tide, moonset and some swell, though with moderate wind.

Species with the most records nearby: spot, Atlantic croaker, weakfish and summer flounder. October is one of the months when these are seen most: spot and Atlantic croaker. What you can catch

Today's high and low tides

  • ▼ Low tide 5:00 am -0.1 ft
  • ▲ High tide 11:08 am 2.3 ft · coef. 88
  • ▲ High tide 11:26 pm 1.6 ft · coef. 86

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 8 min to low tide at 6:06 pm.

Tide coefficient 88 for the 11:08 am high tide and 86 for the 11:26 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 2.5 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 November 25 (2.4 ft) and the lowest, on December 25 (-0.6 ft).

Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.

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 90, 2.5 ft range). The smallest, from October 18 to 19 (coefficient 40, 0.8 ft).

Where this tide comes from

A · Official station

Tides from the Coral Bay station (NOAA), 2.6 mi from Pine Knoll Shores. Times and heights are its predictions. It is a NOAA subordinate station: its times and heights come from the Cape Hatteras Fishing Pier reference station with the official corrections.

Sea and waves

The sea at Pine Knoll Shores

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: slight

Slight Douglas 3 · fresh breeze, Beaufort 5
Waves 3.3 ft · 6.0 s from the east-southeast (111°)
Swell 2.8 ft · 5.8 s from the southeast
Current 0.4 mph toward the W

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common1.6 ft
  • Significant3.3 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest6.8 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 6.8 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 6.8 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 11 mph NE · gusts 23
Offshore (14 mi SSE)Offshore 21 mph NE · gusts 28

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

Today’s surf at a glance

The best window, 3:00 pm to 6:43 pm, has a good size and light offshore wind, though with a short-period swell. 7:00 am to 10:00 am can also work, with light offshore wind, 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.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 9:50 am to 10:30 am, combines light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 11:30 am to 1:30 pm, with slack water at high tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 5:30 pm to 6:20 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.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 1:42–3:42 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:14–4:14 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 9:52–10:52 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:34–8:34 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 slope

The bottom slopes gently: 16 ft deep 0.35 mi from shore and 33 ft at 0.65 mi.

From the shoreline (1,100 ft from Pine Knoll Shores) out to sea, heading south.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep0.35 mi
  • 33 ft deep0.65 mi
  • 66 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.35 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 0.65 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, go by boat.
