Costa Rica Tide Charts

Cahuita tides

Predicted from Puerto Limon, NOAA station 9688541, 22 miles away. No gauge exists nearer than this. The coast between runs open and unbroken, so the heights hold well and only the turn of the tide may fall a little either side of the times shown. Heights in feet above MLLW. Also covers Playa Cahuita (White Beach) and Cahuita National Park.

About Cahuita

Cahuita is a relaxed Afro-Caribbean village defined by lush coastal forests and the expansive marine protected area inside Cahuita National Park, including Playa Cahuita (White Beach). The national park features one of Costa Rica's largest living coral reefs, offering guided snorkeling tours among brain coral, sea fans, tropical fish, and stingrays. White Beach provides tranquil swimming, nature trails filled with monkeys and sloths, and quiet beachcombing. A low tide chart is vital for exploring Cahuita: low tide provides calmer, clearer water conditions for floating over the shallow living reef without damaging delicate corals, and opens up wide sand paths along the coastal rainforest trail that can flood during high tides.
