Where these times come from. There is no official tide station at Tramore.
These are the Marine Institute's predictions for Dunmore East, the nearest
official station, 11 km away. Times at Tramore will differ by a few minutes. We do not invent a local
correction, because a made up offset is worse than a stated approximation.

Tramore tide questions
- What time is high tide at Tramore today?
- Today's high water times are shown at the top of this page, taken from the Dunmore East station 11 km away. There are two high waters roughly every 24 hours and 50 minutes, and local times at Tramore differ from the station by a few minutes.
- Is there an official tide station at Tramore?
- No. The Marine Institute does not predict for Tramore directly. The nearest official station is Dunmore East, 11 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 Tramore?
- 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 Tramore face?
- Tramore faces S, so a wind from that direction is onshore and a wind from the opposite side is offshore.
