Best window today
Outside the window right now. Next high water 14:30. This is a shallow shelving strand, so the sea moves a long way. The usable window runs from about three hours before high water to an hour and a half after.
Wind and sea
Clonakilty faces S. A WNW wind is blowing along the beach, expect a lateral drift.

Questions
What time is high tide at Clonakilty today?
Today's times are at the top of this page, taken from the Union Hall station 19 km away. There are two high waters roughly every 24 hours and 50 minutes, and local times at Clonakilty differ from the station by a few minutes.
Is there an official tide station at Clonakilty?
No. The Marine Institute does not predict for Clonakilty directly. The nearest official station is Union Hall, 19 km away, and that is what these times come from. We do not apply an invented local correction.
What is the best tide for swimming at Clonakilty?
This is a shallow shelving strand, so the sea moves a long way. The usable window runs from about three hours before high water to an hour and a half after.
Which way does Clonakilty face?
Clonakilty faces S, so a wind from that direction is onshore and a wind from the opposite side is offshore.
