Tides in Warrenton
Today's high and low tides
- ▲ High tide 4:28 am 7.3 ft · coef. 81
- ▼ Next low tide 9:36 am 3.0 ft
- ▲ High tide 3:26 pm 9.5 ft · coef. 78
- ▼ Low tide 10:38 pm -0.9 ft
↓ Falling The tide is falling. 3 h 35 min to low tide at 9:36 am.
Tide coefficient 81 for the 4:28 am high tide and 78 for the 3:26 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 10.4 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 December 24 (10.5 ft) and the lowest, on July 15 (-1.9 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 9 to 11 (coefficient 90, 9.7 ft range). The smallest, from October 18 to 19 (coefficient 40, 5.7 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Tides from the Warrenton station (NOAA), 0.4 mi from Warrenton. Times and heights are its predictions. It is a NOAA subordinate station: its times and heights come from the Astoria (Tongue Point) reference station with the official corrections.

The sea at Warrenton
Sea stateSea state: moderate
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common3.1 ft
- Significant6.3 ft
- Highest expectedHighest13 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 13 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 13 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces west and the wind comes off the land at an angle: calmer water near the shore, and bait and boats drift out to sea.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Tuesday 3: 7.0 ft with a period of 14 s, from the west (moderate).
Water temperature
Water temperature →The satellite measured 4.0 °F more yesterday than the model gives now: the water is probably warmer than the forecast says.
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 colder than normal for late October (−2.1 °F).

Surf in Warrenton today
Surf today
Good- 3.2–5.0 ft surf at the shore, a good size with some punch
- 4.7 ft swell at 7 s from the west-northwest, short: weak, messy waves
- Almost no wind (3 mph): glassy water
- First or last light of the day
- Falling tide (low tide at 10:38 pm)
- Light: First light 7:22 am · sunrise 7:53 am · sunset 6:06 pm · last light 6:37 pm
- Tide: high 4:28 am (7.3 ft), low 9:36 am (3.0 ft), high 3:26 pm (9.5 ft) and low 10:38 pm (-0.9 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 51.6 °F: a 6/5 hooded fullsuit with booties and gloves.
- Energy: 188 kJ · Medium power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 6:00 pm to 6:37 pm, has a good size and glassy water, though with a short-period swell. 7:22 am to 11:00 am can also work, with a good size and 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.
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 Warrenton today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: fair- Slack water around high tide (3:26 pm): little current from 3:00 pm to 3:50 pm
- 5.0 ft swell at 7 s from the west-northwest: strong surge on the bottom
- Light onshore wind (7 mph)
- 0.1 mph current toward the east, weak (model)
- Sun high: more light underwater
- Slack water today: high tide 4:28 am (4:00–5:00 am), low tide 9:36 am (9:00–10:10 am), high tide 3:26 pm (3:00–3:50 pm) and low tide 10:38 pm (10:10–11:10 pm)
- Likely visibility: fair. Swell (up to 6.9 ft at 7 s) over the last few days has stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 51.6 °F: a 7 mm semi-dry suit, with hood, gloves and booties.
- Snorkeling: better not, with these waves, wind or current.
- Night dive: dark from 6:37 pm. Waning gibbous (83%), rising at 8:35 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 2:20 pm to 4:10 pm, combines slack water at high tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high, though with some swell. Also worth a look from 8:30 am to 10:50 am, with slack water at low tide, light wind and weak current, though with some swell.
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 226,837 mi away and looks 32′ 43″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: high- 3:03–5:03 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 3:36–5:36 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 12:07–1:07 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 8:05–9:05 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 1,100 ft): cast far from the beach and fish the high tide, when there is more water close in.
- Swimming. The water gets deeper little by little, but a few dozen yards out you can no longer stand.
- Diving. Shallow near shore: you only reach 33 ft at 0.75 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, go by boat.
