Tides in Nibe

Today's high and low tides

  • ▲ High tide 12:35 am 0.3 ft
  • ▼ Low tide 6:33 am -0.3 ft
  • ▲ High tide 1:01 pm 0.2 ft
  • ▼ Low tide 6:37 pm -0.3 ft

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 1 h 38 min to high tide at 1:25 am.

In Nibe the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.6 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 January 1 (0.4 ft) and the lowest, on October 7 (-0.4 ft).

Heights above mean sea level. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. mean sea level

Sea and waves

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: slight

Slight Douglas 3 · moderate breeze, Beaufort 4

Wind waves — —
Current 0.5 mph toward the ENE

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common1.9 ft
  • Significant3.8 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest7.8 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 7.8 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 7.8 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 9 mph SW · gusts 18

Cross-shore wind. The coast faces northwest and the wind blows along the shore: drift and current run parallel to the beach.

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 (+1.6 °F).

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 8:30 am to 11:30 am, combines light wind, weak current and the sun high.

In Nibe 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.

Today the moon is 226,461 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: high
  • 12:42–2:42 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:13–3:13 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 10:50–11:50 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 4:29–5:29 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 2.8 mi from shore the water is less than 16 ft deep.

From the shoreline (0.4 mi from Nibe) out to sea, heading northwest.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deepnot within 2.8 mi
  • 33 ft deepnot within 2.8 mi
  • 66 ft deepnot within 2.8 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 2.8 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Very shallow: the water doesn't reach 16 ft within 2.8 mi. Cast far from the beach, ideally around high tide.
  • Swimming. A very gentle way in with plenty of shallow water, good for kids. At low tide the water can be far out.
  • Diving. Shallow: the water doesn't reach 33 ft within 2.8 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) 2.8 mi out. Where the bottom comes up to the surface there are shoals, rocks or an islet next to the profile.
