Tides in Thisted
Today's high and low tides
- ▼ Next low tide 7:08 am -0.1 ft
- ▲ High tide 11:13 am 0.1 ft
- ▼ Low tide 7:36 pm -0.1 ft
- ▲ High tide 11:47 pm 0.1 ft
↓ Falling The tide is falling. 6 h 45 min to low tide at 7:08 am.
In Thisted the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.2 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 November 4 (0.2 ft) and the lowest, on August 12 (-0.2 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

The sea at Thisted
Sea stateSea state: moderate
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common2.9 ft
- Significant5.7 ft
- Highest expectedHighest12 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 12 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 12 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-shore wind. The coast faces south and the wind blows along the shore: drift and current run parallel to the beach.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Thursday 29: 5.8 ft with a period of 7 s, from the west (moderate).
Water temperature
Water temperature →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.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,618 mi away and looks 32′ 45″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: high- 1:49–3:49 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:21–4:21 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 12:18–1:18 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 5:24–6:24 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
Deepens quicklyThe bottom deepens quickly: 33 ft of water 0.3 mi from shore.
From the shoreline (0.35 mi from Thisted) out to sea, heading south.

- 33 ft deep0.3 mi
- 66 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
- 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 6.9 ft just 330 ft out. Good for casting from rocks, jetties or the beach itself; current and surf hit harder here.
- Swimming. The water gets deeper little by little, but a few dozen yards out you can no longer stand.
- Diving. 33 ft deep 0.3 mi from shore; 66 ft is far out (beyond 3.1 mi): for deeper dives, go by boat.
Inside bays, estuaries and harbors the bottom changes a lot from spot to spot (channels and shoals): use this only as a rough guide.
