↑ Rising The tide is rising. 3 h 23 min to high tide at 6:18 pm.
Tide coefficient 88 for the 7:53 am high tide and 86 for the 6:18 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 14.7 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 December 26 (13.3 ft) and the lowest, on June 15 (-4.2 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 89, 14.7 ft range). The smallest, from October 18 to 19 (coefficient 40, 9.5 ft).

Tides from the Bremerton station (NOAA), 2.1 mi from Parkwood. Times and heights are its predictions.

The sea at Parkwood
Sea state
The wave model doesn't reach Parkwood: it's on inland water (an estuary, sound or sheltered bay) or far from the open sea. Wind is still available right here.
Wind on the coast and offshore
The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.
Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces northwest and the wind comes off the land at an angle: calmer water near the shore, and bait and boats drift out to sea.

Steady now (−0.02 inHg in 3 hours). It barely changes over the next 48 hours. Steady pressure: anglers expect normal activity. Fast changes, either way, tend to affect fishing.

The moon in Parkwood
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,426 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: high- 1:54–3:54 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:25–4:25 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 10:59–11:59 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 6:49–7:49 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
Deepens quicklyThe bottom deepens quickly: 33 ft of water 1,150 ft from shore.
From the shoreline (1.1 mi from Parkwood) out to sea, heading north.
How far from shore
- 16 ft deep850 ft
- 33 ft deep1,150 ft
- 66 ft deepnot within 2 mi
- 164 ft deepnot within 2 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. 33 ft of water just 1,150 ft from shore: a good cast reaches deep water. Current and surf hit harder here.
- Swimming. The water gets deeper little by little, but a few dozen yards out you can no longer stand.
- Diving. 33 ft deep 1,150 ft from shore; 66 ft is far out (beyond 2 mi): for deeper dives, go by boat.
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) 2 mi out. The profile is turned slightly from the coast so it does not run into an island or a headland.
