READING THE SEA…

Planning around the tide at Rio de Janeiro

Rio de Janeiro gets roughly two high tides and two lows each day, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. Low tide uncovers the most beach and rock pools; high tide is usually best for launching and for surf at many breaks. These are astronomical predictions — strong onshore winds or a storm surge can push the actual water level higher than the table shows, so give a wide margin in rough weather.
