Tides

Tides in Lemvig

Today's high and low tides

  • ▼ Low tide 12:07 am 0.1 ft
  • ▼ Low tide 12:29 pm 0.1 ft
  • ▲ High tide 7:09 pm 0.9 ft

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 7 min to high tide at 6:35 am.

In Lemvig the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.9 ft between high and low tide. Here the sea level is moved mostly by wind and air pressure (storm surge), which can raise or lower it more than the tide itself.

2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on December 29 (1.1 ft) and the lowest, on November 5 (0.0 ft).

Heights above chart datum: the lowest astronomical tide (LAT), the zero of nautical charts in Europe. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. chart datum (LAT)

Where this tide comes from

No significant tide

Tides from the Lemvig station (DMI), 0.2 mi from Lemvig. Times and heights are its predictions.

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Lemvig

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: moderate

Moderate Douglas 4 · gentle breeze, Beaufort 3
Waves 4.8 ft · 6.7 s from the west (269°)
Swell 3.9 ft · 5.3 s from the west
Current 0.0 mph toward the E

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common2.4 ft
  • Significant4.8 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest9.8 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 9.8 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 9.8 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 6 mph W · gusts 10
Offshore (14 mi N)Offshore 12 mph W · gusts 20

Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces north and the wind comes in from the sea at an angle: a bit more surf at the shore and drift along the coast, toward land.

Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Thursday 29: 6.0 ft with a period of 7 s, from the west (moderate).

Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water is steady these days, with no sudden changes.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+1.7 °F).

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 11:30 am to 2:30 pm, combines light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also worth a look from 7:30 am to 8:10 am, with light wind and weak current, though with some swell.

In Lemvig the tide barely moves the water, so there's no slack to wait for: swell, wind and current are what count.

Never dive alone and check with the local dive shop: this rating is a guide, not a substitute for a professional.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: high
  • 1:50–3:50 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:23–4:23 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 12:15–1:15 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 5:30–6:30 pm Minor · moonrise · medium activity

According to solunar theory, fish feed more when the moon passes overhead or underfoot (major periods, about 2 h) and when it rises or sets (minor periods, 1 h). It works best around new and full moon.

Water depth

Very shallow

Very shallow and flat: even 1 mi from shore the water is less than 16 ft deep.

From the shoreline (1,150 ft from Lemvig) out to sea, heading north.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deepnot within 1 mi
  • 33 ft deepnot within 1 mi
  • 66 ft deepnot within 1 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Very shallow: the water doesn't reach 16 ft within 1 mi. Cast far from the beach, ideally around high tide.
  • Swimming. The water gets deeper little by little, but a few dozen yards out you can no longer stand.
  • Diving. Shallow: the water doesn't reach 33 ft within 1 mi. For deeper dives, take a boat farther out.

Inside bays, estuaries and harbors the bottom changes a lot from spot to spot (channels and shoals): use this only as a rough guide. There is land ahead (an island, a headland or the far shore) 1 mi out. Where the bottom comes up to the surface there are shoals, rocks or an islet next to the profile.
