Tide coefficient 73 for the 1:23 am high tide and 74 for the 1:54 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 1.6 ft between the highest high and the lowest low: an average range for this place. 70 is an average tide here; 90 and above means spring tides; below 45, neap tides.

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

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Albuen Strand

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · light breeze, Beaufort 2
Waves 0.5 ft · 2.2 s from the south-southwest (198°)
Swell 0.4 ft · 2.0 s from the south
Current 0.2 mph toward the S

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.3 ft
  • Significant0.5 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest1.1 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 1.1 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 1.1 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 6 mph W · gusts 14

The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.

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

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 12:50 pm to 2:30 pm, combines slack water at high tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 10:00 am to 11:50 am, with little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 7:00 am to 8:10 am, 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
  • 1:45–3:45 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:18–4:18 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 12:00–1:00 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 5:34–6:34 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

Shallow, gradual

Shallow, gradual bottom: 16 ft at 0.75 mi from shore and 0 ft at 1.8 mi.

From the shoreline out to sea, heading southeast.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep0.75 mi
  • 33 ft deepnot within 1.8 mi
  • 66 ft deepnot within 1.8 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 1.8 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.75 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. Shallow: the water doesn't reach 33 ft within 1.8 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) 1.8 mi out. The profile is turned slightly from the coast so it does not run into an island or a headland. Where the bottom comes up to the surface there are shoals, rocks or an islet next to the profile.
