Where this tide comes from
Ebeltoft has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Grenå (DMI), 18 mi away. On the open coast the difference is usually a few minutes and inches; inside estuaries, rivers and enclosed bays it can be much larger.

Solunar periods
Today's activity: high- 1:41–3:41 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity

- 12:01–1:01 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity

For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 1,150 ft): cast far from the beach and fish the high tide, when there is more water close in.
- Swimming. A very gentle way in with plenty of shallow water, good for kids. At low tide the water can be far out.
