Houbihu Port Tide Table

30-day tide table for Houbihu Port, including today's and tomorrow's high and low tide times, heights, tidal range and wave conditions from Taiwan CWA.

How to use

Pick a location — Choose a coastal spot from the dropdown above, or go straight to /tide/location-slug for that spot's own page (e.g. Gaomei Wetlands, Longdong, Jinzun).
Read the tide cards — High tide and low tide times and heights are the first thing to check — they decide whether it's safe to go into the water, walk the tidal flats, or surf.
Check the location-specific notes — Things like the Gaomei boardwalk's opening hours, a dive spot's slack-water window, or surf conditions only appear on that location's own page — scroll down after switching locations.

FAQ

Should I dive on a rising or falling tide?

What matters is slack water, not rising vs falling — the current is weakest around high and low tide, which is best for shore diving and snorkelling. Mid-tide has the strongest, most dangerous current. Match your entry to that day’s tide times and aim for the slack window.

How do I know the best time to get in today?

Check today’s high and low tide times on this page; the roughly 1-hour window around each turning point is slack water with the weakest current. Still confirm the day’s wind, swell, visibility and weather, and defer to your dive shop and on-site notices.

Can I enter the water inside Houbihu Marina?

No. Swimming and diving are prohibited inside the harbor. Use a lawful shore-entry area outside the basin and channel, and follow current buoys and notices.

Slack Water & Best Times to Get In (Diving / Snorkelling)

Shore diving and snorkelling are safest — and usually clearest — at slack water: the window around high and low tide when the current turns and runs weakest. Mid-tide is when the current is strongest and least suitable for getting in.

Below are estimated slack windows of about 1 hour around each high and low tide today. Actual current, swell and visibility still depend on wind, terrain and weather.

Verified access, entry and facilities

Only official or owner-confirmed information is shown. Unverified drafts stay off the page. Check same-day notices and on-site controls before departure.

Getting there with equipment

The public lot is on the landward side of Houbihu Harbor. The official listing shows 113 car, 12 scooter and 24 coach spaces and currently marks it free; dive gear still has to follow the harbor-side pedestrian route. Official source
The old shelter beside the parking lot is no longer a bus stop. With equipment, walk about 100 metres toward Chushuikou and use the stop on the left, as directed by the park authority. Official source

Water entry and exit

The marina basin is not a dive entry. Harbor rules prohibit swimming and diving inside the port, so shore entries must remain outside the basin, navigation channel and vessel-working areas. Official source
The current Kenting plan lists the west side of the Houbihu channel for daytime shore scuba within 200 metres of shore. This does not permit crossing the channel; follow on-site buoys and control lines. Official source

Rinsing, parking and facilities

Official harbor facilities include a visitor centre, shops, parking, toilets, the ring road and a shore boat-storage area. Keep dive equipment clear of vessel and service-vehicle routes while gearing up. Official source
The published harbor facility list does not identify a fixed public gear-rinse station. If rinsing is essential, confirm an available location and same-day operation with a licensed dive operator or the harbor office. Official source

Rules and ecological care

Since 2 July 2026, freediving has been prohibited west of the Houbihu channel because of its proximity to vessel traffic. The shore-scuba designation must not be treated as freediving permission. Official source
Kenting requires non-powered activities to remain within 200 metres of shore and outside navigation channels. On-site buoys, flags or staff directions take precedence when they impose tighter controls. Official source
