Tides in Westport
Today's high and low tides

- ▲ Next high tide 5:40 am 5.4 ft · coef. 77
- ▼ Low tide 11:29 am 1.8 ft
- ▲ High tide 4:46 pm 7.8 ft · coef. 74
↑ Rising The tide is rising. 3 h 39 min to high tide at 5:40 am.
Tide coefficient 77 for the 5:40 am high tide and 74 for the 4:46 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 8.4 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 23 (8.5 ft) and the lowest, on July 15 (-1.6 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 9 to 10 (coefficient 91, 7.9 ft range). The smallest, on October 18 (coefficient 42, 4.6 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Tides from the Wauna station (NOAA), 2.3 mi from Westport. Times and heights are its predictions.

The sea at Westport
Sea stateSea state: smooth
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common0.4 ft
- Significant0.7 ft
- Highest expectedHighest1.4 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 1.4 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 1.4 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces north 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: 1.1 ft with a period of 9 s, from the northwest (smooth).

Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 10:00 am to 12:30 pm, combines slack water at low tide, small waves, light wind and the sun high. Also good from 4:20 pm to 5:20 pm, with slack water at high tide, small waves and light wind.
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.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,837 mi away and looks 32′ 43″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 3:01–5:01 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 3:33–5:33 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 12:05–1:05 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 8:03–9:03 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, gradualShallow, gradual bottom: 0.7 ft at 0.85 mi.
From the shoreline (0.8 mi from Westport) out to sea, heading northeast.
How far from shore

- 33 ft deepnot within 0.85 mi
- 66 ft deepnot within 0.85 mi
- 164 ft deepnot within 0.85 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. About 7.9 ft of water 330 ft out: long casts help, and so does a rising tide, which brings fish closer in.
- Swimming. The water gets deeper little by little, but a few dozen yards out you can no longer stand.
- Diving. Shallow: the water doesn't reach 33 ft within 0.85 mi. For deeper dives, take a boat farther out.
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) 0.85 mi out. The profile is turned slightly from the coast so it does not run into an island or a headland.
