The tide barely stirs today in 伊塔博拉伊, and that is a gift. High water creeps in twice, around 4:20 in the morning and again near 5 in the afternoon, each reaching just over a meter, while the sea pulls back to a whisper of 0.2 meters just before 11 in the morning and settles at 0.4 meters late, close to 11 at night.
The swing between high and low stays under a meter, so the shoreline feels almost lazy, the water easing out and back without any drama. For beachgoers, the late morning low tide leaves wide, firm sand for a long walk, and the afternoon high around 5 brings a gentle push of water ideal for floating or a calm paddle, no sudden surges to fight.
Swimmers will find the current nearly nonexistent, and that makes the hour after the morning high, from 4 to 6 am, a still, quiet window for a solo dip. Fishing is best in the last hour of the falling tide, say from 9:30 to 10:45, when the water is moving just enough to stir up bait, but small boats can launch or pull out almost any time given the mild range, just avoid the exact low at 10:54 when the channel may shallow out.
With sunrise at 6:25 and sunset at 5:30, the day gives you a long, soft light for the sea. Plan your beach time around the afternoon high, when the sun is lower and the water feels warmest, and use the early morning low to walk the flats before the day heats up. The tide may be small, but it sets a gentle rhythm, so let it guide your hours.
