Where this tide comes from

B · Nearby station

Alholm has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Nykøbing Falster Havn (DMI), 9.1 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.

Sea and waves

The sea at Alholm

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · moderate breeze, Beaufort 4
Waves 1.5 ft · 2.8 s from the southwest (234°)
Swell 0.6 ft · 2.5 s from the west-southwest
Current 0.6 mph toward the E

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.8 ft
  • Significant1.5 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest3.3 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 3.3 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 3.3 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 10 mph SW · gusts 17
Offshore (11 mi S)Offshore 17 mph SW · gusts 22

Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces south and the wind comes in from the sea at an angle: a bit more surf at the shore and drift along the coast, toward land.

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 52.1 °F by Wednesday 4.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+2.7 °F).

The best window, 12:00 pm to 4:00 pm, has light offshore wind, though with barely any waves.

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.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 9:00 am to 10:40 am, combines slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 3:30 pm to 4:40 pm, with slack water at high 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.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: high
  • 1:36–3:36 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:09–4:09 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 11:41 am–12:41 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 5:36–6:36 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 3.1 mi from shore the water is less than 16 ft deep.

From the shoreline out to sea, heading south.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
  • 33 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
  • 66 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Very shallow: the water doesn't reach 16 ft within 3.1 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 3.1 mi. For deeper dives, take a boat farther out.
