Tides in San Timoteo
Today's high and low tides
- ▲ High tide 1:27 am 0.2 ft
- ▼ Next low tide 8:18 am -0.1 ft
- ▲ High tide 1:26 pm 0.0 ft
- ▼ Low tide 7:10 pm -0.1 ft
↓ Falling The tide is falling. 2 h 15 min to low tide at 8:18 am.
In San Timoteo the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.3 ft between high and low tide. Here the sea level is moved mostly by wind and air pressure (storm surge), which can raise or lower it more than the tide itself.
2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on July 14 (0.2 ft) and the lowest, on December 19 (-0.2 ft).
Heights above mean sea level. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. mean sea level

Where this tide comes from
Tides from the FES2022 station (AVISO/CNES), 1.6 mi from San Timoteo. Times and heights are its predictions.
Station data attribution: FES2022 Tide was produced by LEGOS, NOVELTIS and CLS, funded by CNES, and distributed by AVISO (https://doi.org/10.24400/527896/a01-2024.004), AVISO licence (https://www.aviso.altimetry.fr/fileadmin/documents/data/License_Aviso.pdf).

The sea at San Timoteo
Sea stateSea state: calm (rippled)
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common0.0 ft
- Significant0.1 ft
- Highest expectedHighest0.1 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 0.1 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 0.1 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 Friday 30: 0.7 ft with a period of 2 s, from the southwest (smooth).

The moon in San Timoteo
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,746 mi away and looks 32′ 44″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 2:22–4:22 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:55–4:55 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 9:30–10:30 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 9:20–10:20 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: you need to go 1.1 mi out for 33 ft of water.

- 16 ft deep0.35 mi
- 33 ft deep1.1 mi
- 66 ft deep2.6 mi
- 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. About 8.5 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 near shore: you only reach 33 ft at 1.1 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, go by boat.
Rough estimate: here the data comes in cells of about 0.3 mi and misses details near shore (rocks, sandbars, small coves).
Source: NOAA ETOPO 2022 (CC0), cells of about 0.3 mi; depth below mean sea level. For reference only: not for navigation or anchoring.
