Southern Tides 2026

Poster size: 995x325mm, printed on 200gsm matt art, metallic light blue and dark blue grid

Southern Tides 2026 has arrived. The poster accurately shows the tides for Cape Town and Durban plotted against an hourly grid. It's designed to hang horizontally (high tide at the top of the wave line) or vertically (high tide to the right). The timing of high and low tides seldom varies by more than half an hour along the southern African coastline. Tidal information for 2026 is obtained from the Hydrographer, SA Navy*. We take the tidal data and plot it on an hourly grid for every day of the year.

Southern Tides will help you plan your rock pool investigations, beach soccer, surfing, fishing or just lazing about along our southern African coastline.
