Best window today
Outside the window right now. Next high water 14:35. This is a slip, steps or pier entry, so depth arrives with the tide. The usable window is roughly two hours either side of high water.
Wind and sea
Cobh faces SSW. A W wind is blowing along the beach, expect a lateral drift.

Questions
What time is high tide at Cobh today?
Today's times are at the top of this page, taken from the Cork Harbour station 1 km away. There are two high waters roughly every 24 hours and 50 minutes, and local times at Cobh differ from the station by a few minutes.
Is there an official tide station at Cobh?
No. The Marine Institute does not predict for Cobh directly. The nearest official station is Cork Harbour, 1 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 Cobh?
This is a slip, steps or pier entry, so depth arrives with the tide. The usable window is roughly two hours either side of high water.
Which way does Cobh face?
Cobh faces SSW, so a wind from that direction is onshore and a wind from the opposite side is offshore.
