The best window, 3:10 pm to 3:50 pm, combines the 4:12 pm low tide, a major period, a light onshore breeze and some swell. Also worth a try from 2:10 am to 3:20 am, with the 3:06 am low tide, a major period and some swell, though with rising pressure. Also worth a try from 9:50 am to 10:50 am, with the 9:47 am high tide, moonset and some swell, though with rising pressure.

Species with the most records nearby: winter flounder, scup, longfin inshore squid and summer flounder. October is one of the months when these are seen most: scup and longfin inshore squid. What you can catch

Tide coefficient 94 for the 9:47 am high tide and 91 for the 10:13 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 4.7 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 May 17 (4.5 ft) and the lowest, on December 25 (-0.9 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 27 (coefficient 97, 4.7 ft range). The smallest, from October 18 to 19 (coefficient 39, 1.9 ft).

Sea and waves

The sea at Scarborough State Beach

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · gentle breeze, Beaufort 3
Waves 1.6 ft · 7.3 s from the southeast (137°)
Swell 1.4 ft · 6.4 s from the southeast
Current 0.1 mph toward the WSW

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.8 ft
  • Significant1.6 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest3.2 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 3.2 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 3.2 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 6 mph SSW · gusts 10
Offshore (9.8 mi S)Offshore 11 mph SSW · gusts 14

Cross-shore wind. The coast faces southeast and the wind blows along the shore: drift and current run parallel to the beach.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 9:10 am to 10:40 am, combines slack water at high tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 3:00 pm to 5:20 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
  • 1:20–3:20 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity

  • 9:54–10:54 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 6:46–7:46 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 0.4 mi from shore and 33 ft at 0.6 mi.

From the shoreline out to sea, heading southeast.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep0.4 mi
  • 33 ft deep0.6 mi
  • 66 ft deep0.9 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.4 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. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 0.6 mi and 66 ft at 0.9 mi from shore.
