Reading the table
- Times are Brisbane time (AEST, UTC+10; Queensland has no daylight saving). Heights are metres above Lowest Astronomical Tide (LAT). Highs are in bold.
- Range: the biggest rise or fall between one tide and the next that day, in metres. A bigger range usually means stronger tidal flow.
- Dawn tide and dusk tide: the tide at sunrise and at sunset. Run-in means rising, run-out falling.
- Tide & light windows name the species in season here whose favourite tide stage lines up with the first-light window (first light to two hours after sunrise) or the last-light window (two hours before sunset to last light), on the same rule the forecast uses. Species in a closed season are never named.
- First light and last light are civil twilight, when the sun is 6° below the horizon, worked out for Mooloolaba.
- Spring: within 2 days of a new or full moon, when the tide range is usually biggest. Neap: within 2 days of a quarter moon.
- Solunar bite times (moon overhead or underfoot for major periods, moonrise or moonset for minor ones) are folklore: they add 0 points to Catch Signal's ratings.
What are the biggest tides at Mooloolaba in October?
The highest predicted tide at Mooloolaba in October 2026 is 1.98 m at 9:17 am on 28 October 2026, and the lowest is 0.05 m at 2:00 am on 27 October 2026. The biggest range, 1.91 m between one tide and the next, comes on 28 October 2026. Spring tides, around the new and full moon, fall on 9–12 and 25–28 October.
How do the Mooloolaba tides compare with Noosa Head?
Noosa Head is the nearest other MSQ station to Mooloolaba, 34.4 km to the north. Matching each high and low in October 2026, high water at Mooloolaba comes about 8 minutes after Noosa Head on average and low water about 8 minutes after; highs are about 0.14 m lower and lows about 0.14 m lower. Both sets of times are MSQ's own predictions for its gauges.
When is the best time to fish at Mooloolaba?
On Catch Signal's rating, the best time to fish at Mooloolaba is first or last light when the tide is at the stage the fish you're after bites best on, in a wind light enough to fish. From 9 October to the end of the month, first or last light meets the favourite tide of 5 of the species in season here on 14–15, 17 and 29–31 October, the most of any day. The table's Tide & light windows column names the species for each day, and the forecast has the wind.

How the Mooloolaba tide times are predicted
MSQ predictions for Mooloolaba (011008A).
- These are Maritime Safety Queensland's published predictions for its Mooloolaba tide gauge, which Catch Signal treats as good to about ±5 min.
- MSQ issued its 2026 predictions for Mooloolaba on 30 Oct 2025.
- Heights are metres above LAT (Lowest Astronomical Tide), the datum of MSQ's predictions. Times are Brisbane time (AEST, UTC+10).
- Predictions only: wind, air pressure and storm surge move the real tide. Not for navigation.
