Semidiurnal: two high and two low tides a day, of similar height.

Onshore wind. The coast faces southwest and the wind blows straight in from the sea: more surf and backwash at the shore, and bait and boats drift toward land.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 8:00 am to 11:00 am, combines slack water at high tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 2:30 pm to 3:40 pm, with slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind and weak current.

Slack water comes from the tide: in inlets, channels and between islands the water can keep running for an hour or two after. Ask the local dive shop.

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
  • 1:43–3:43 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:15–4:15 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 12:14–1:14 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 5:16–6:16 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

Gentle slope

The bottom slopes gently: 16 ft deep 0.35 mi from shore and 33 ft at 0.5 mi.

From the shoreline (1.6 mi from Vester Hassing) out to sea, heading southwest.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep0.35 mi
  • 33 ft deep0.5 mi
  • 66 ft deepnot within 1 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.35 mi): 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.
  • Diving. 33 ft deep 0.5 mi from shore; 66 ft is far out (beyond 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. There is land ahead (an island, a headland or the far shore) 1 mi out.
