  • ▲ High tide 4:24 am 1.4 ft · coef. 110
  • ▼ Low tide 12:53 pm 0.0 ft

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 6 h 24 min to high tide at 4:35 am.

Tide coefficient 110 for the 4:24 am high tide. Big spring tides. The water rises and falls 1.4 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 October 3 (1.6 ft) and the lowest, on January 2 (-1.1 ft).

Mixed, mainly diurnal: on many days there is only one high and one low tide.

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 come from October 29 to 30 (coefficient 114, 1.4 ft range). The smallest, on October 23 (coefficient 20, 0.5 ft).

Where this tide comes from

B · Nearby station

Taylor Landing has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Port Arthur (NOAA), 12 mi away. On the open coast the difference is usually a few minutes and inches; inside estuaries, rivers and enclosed bays it can be much larger.

Station data attribution: Slackwater database (https://github.com/openwatersio/slackwater-database)

The waves you may find

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 4.2 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 4.2 ft.

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

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 12:20 pm to 1:20 pm, combines slack water at low tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high.

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
  • 1:55–3:55 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:26–4:26 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 9:49–10:49 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 8:01–9:01 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.
