Questions
What time is high tide at Inch Beach today?
Today's times are at the top of this page, taken from the Dingle station 20 km away. There are two high waters roughly every 24 hours and 50 minutes, and local times at Inch Beach differ from the station by a few minutes.
Is there an official tide station at Inch Beach?
No. The Marine Institute does not predict for Inch Beach directly. The nearest official station is Dingle, 20 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 Inch Beach?
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 Inch Beach face?
Inch Beach faces SSW, so a wind from that direction is onshore and a wind from the opposite side is offshore.
