Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.

Where this tide comes from
Vestervig has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Thyborøn Kyst (DMI), 5.7 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.

The sea at Vestervig
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.9 ft
- Significant3.9 ft
- Highest expectedHighest7.9 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 7.9 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 7.9 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Onshore wind. The coast faces west and the wind blows straight in from the sea: more surf and backwash at the shore, and bait and boats drift toward land.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Thursday 29: 4.8 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 cools over the next few days: about 53.5 °F by Wednesday 4.
Water warmer than normal for late October (+1.5 °F).

Surf in Vestervig today
Surf today
Poor- 2.2–3.3 ft surf at the shore, a fun size for most surfers
- 3.1 ft swell at 5 s from the west, short: weak, messy waves
- Light onshore wind (8 mph): a bit of chop
- Falling tide (low tide at 10:51 am)
- Light: First light 6:49 am · sunrise 7:30 am · sunset 4:50 pm · last light 5:31 pm
- Tide: high 5:04 am (1.9 ft), low 10:51 am (0.3 ft), high 5:36 pm (1.9 ft) and low 11:11 pm (0.4 ft). Every break has its own tide: some work at low tide and others at high tide. The tide doesn’t change the score here.
- Water at 54.5 °F: a 5/4 fullsuit with booties (and a hood if it’s windy).
- Energy: 47 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 7:00 am to 10:00 am, has a good size, though with a short-period swell. 5:00 pm to 5:31 pm can also work, with a good size, though with a short-period swell.
An estimate for this stretch of coast, not for a specific break: every beach or reef works its own way (its tide, bottom and angle). Check it when you get there.
Follow the flags and the lifeguards, and don’t paddle out if the surf is above your level: this score is a guide, not a substitute for what you see when you get there.

- Likely visibility: good. Swell (up to 4.5 ft at 7 s) over the last few days has stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 54.5 °F: a 7 mm semi-dry suit, with hood, gloves and booties.
- Snorkeling: better not, with these waves, wind or current.
- Night dive: dark from 5:31 pm. Waning gibbous (85%), rising at 5:57 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 10:20 am to 1:20 pm, combines slack water at low tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high.
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.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,618 mi away and looks 32′ 45″ across.
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
- 12:17–1:17 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 5:27–6:27 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.

For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Very shallow: the water doesn't reach 16 ft within 1.3 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 1.3 mi. For deeper dives, take a boat farther out.
There is land ahead (an island, a headland or the far shore) 1.3 mi out. Where the bottom comes up to the surface there are shoals, rocks or an islet next to the profile.
