Tide coefficient 93 for the 7:36 am high tide and 84 for the 11:43 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 5.2 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 (2.6 ft) and the lowest, on December 24 (-3.9 ft).
Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.
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
Tide coefficient and range in October
The biggest tides of the month came from October 26 to 27 (coefficient 107, 5.3 ft range). The smallest, from October 18 to 19 (coefficient 20, 2.2 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Kilmia has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global EOT20 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 4.3 mi away). It may differ from the real tide by a few minutes and inches, and more with wind or storms. Heights are above mean sea level, not chart datum, so low tides are negative. Not for navigation.

The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.0 ft
- Significant2.0 ft
- Highest expectedHighest4.1 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 4.1 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 4.1 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.
Offshore wind. The coast faces southwest and the wind blows from land out to sea: calm shore and clean waves, but watch the drift out to sea.

Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Tuesday 3: 3.0 ft with a period of 7 s, from the east-southeast (slight).

Surf in Kilmia today
Surf today
Poor- 1.2–1.9 ft surf at the shore, small: good for learning or a longboard
- 1.6 ft swell at 8 s from the south-southeast, a bit short
- Light offshore wind (5 mph): it holds up and grooms the waves
- Falling tide (low tide at 3:37 pm)
- Light: First light 5:01 am · sunrise 5:23 am · sunset 5:06 pm · last light 5:28 pm
- Tide: low 2:03 am (0.5 ft), high 7:36 am (1.9 ft), low 3:37 pm (-3.2 ft) and high 11:43 pm (0.8 ft). Every break has its own tide: some work at low tide and others at high tide. The tide doesn’t change the score here.
- Water at 84.2 °F–85.6 °F: boardshorts or a swimsuit and a rash guard.
- Energy: 34 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 11:00 am to 3:00 pm, has light offshore wind.
An estimate for this stretch of coast, not for a specific break: every beach or reef works its own way (its tide, bottom and angle). Check it when you get there.
Follow the flags and the lifeguards, and don’t paddle out if the surf is above your level: this score is a guide, not a substitute for what you see when you get there.
Diving in Kilmia today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: good- Slack water around low tide (3:37 pm): little current from 3:20 pm to 3:52 pm
- 1.6 ft swell at 8 s from the south-southeast: some surge on the bottom

- Likely visibility: good. Swell (up to 2.0 ft at 8 s) over the last few days has stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 84.2–85.6 °F: a shorty or a rash guard.
- Snorkeling: better not, with these waves, wind or current.
- Night dive: dark from 5:28 pm. Waning gibbous (86%), rising at 8:09 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 2:40 pm to 4:10 pm, combines slack water at low tide and light wind, though with current. Also worth a look from 6:50 am to 9:00 am, with slack water at high tide and light wind, though with 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.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,576 mi away and looks 32′ 46″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 12:47–2:47 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:19–3:19 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 7:59–8:59 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 7:39–8:39 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.

- 164 ft deep1,250 ft
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 40 ft just 330 ft out. Good for casting from rocks, jetties or the beach itself; current and surf hit harder here.
- Swimming. The bottom drops quickly near the shore and you are soon out of your depth. Keep an eye on kids and weak swimmers.
- Diving. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 270 ft and 66 ft at 550 ft from shore.
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.
