Times are the middle of each turn. The small times underneath are slack water, when the level stays close to high or low.

~ times come from a sea model and can be up to an hour out. There's no tide gauge close enough for our own predictions, so heights aren't shown.

Best bet is Thursday 15 October from 04:00 to 07:00, when the flood is three hours in, it is dark, the wind is light south-south-westerly and the sea is moderate at about 0.9 m. Wednesday night from 22:00 to 01:00 is a second option, though the wind is fresher and the sea a little bigger, so check conditions before you go.
