Major Periods (2h)
Minor Periods (1h)
Based on the Solunar Theory (John Alden Knight): fish and wildlife tend to feed more during the periods when the moon is overhead or underfoot (major) and at moonrise/moonset (minor). The score considers the lunar phase and the crossing of major periods with the local high tide.

📘 About Puntarenas Tide Forecast
The coordinates for Puntarenas (9.97° N, 84.83° W) place this stretch of Costa Rica's coast in the northern hemisphere. Its tidal pattern is semi-diurnal (two high and two low tides per day), with a mean tidal range of 1.9m and spring tides reaching up to 2.4m. With 1.5–3 metre swings, high tide floods extensive tidal flats while low tide reveals coastal habitats important to local wildlife. The regularity of semi-diurnal tides — two highs and two lows approximately 6 hours apart — simplifies crossing planning and fishing scheduling. Mean sea level here shows a gradual rising trend linked to global climate change, monitored continuously by local gauges. This page shows the complete 2026 tide table for Puntarenas, with precise high and low tide times and heights in metres for every day of the year. In September, Puntarenas is in its autumn season, a key period for water sports, fishing, diving, and coastal navigation. Predictive modeling employs updated local oceanic constants, ensuring minimal margin of error in peak tidal timing.
