tides

Is there a big difference between high tide and low tide in playa and surrounding areas.Just wondering if there is alot more beach at low tide.

[woodman]

So nobody is going to tell me if there is more beach at low tide than high tide.On the east coast there is 50 to 100 more feet of beach at low tide.I looked at tide tables on internet and did'nt look like big difference at cozemel but i don't actually know what that means.

Yeah, there is a difference, but i think not a big one. I don't recall noticing much of a difference, otherwise I think I'd remember it. Ya know?

Yea when i looked at the tide table it showed like a inch or less difference.How many feet of beach does that make.

if you're thinking of packing your clam shovel and waders, don't bother. i've sat on the beach for hours every day and not even noticed that there was a tide.

Had a conversation with the fellas from the FatCat when we were there in April about tides. They were sayin' that the tidal change is less than a meter.... pretty hard to notice I guess.
