Tide Table Mossel Bay — 2026

📘 About Mossel Bay Tide Forecast

Mossel Bay is located at -34.07° S, 22.33° E on the coast of South Africa, in the southern hemisphere. Its tidal pattern is semi-diurnal (two high and two low tides per day), with a mean tidal range of 1m and spring tides reaching up to 1.7m. The 0.5–1.5m variation exposes sandy flats and shallow reefs at low tide, offering unique opportunities for coastal exploration. The regularity of semi-diurnal tides — two highs and two lows approximately 6 hours apart — simplifies crossing planning and fishing scheduling. The coast here is influenced by large-scale ocean currents that modulate water temperature throughout the year.
