Today, hour by hour
- Swimming Dangerous · 5.1 ft
5.1 ft waves every 9 s: dangerous for swimming. Stay out if the red flag is up. High rip current risk. If you're caught in a rip current, don't swim against it: swim parallel to shore and wave for help. Always follow the lifeguard's flags.

Very cold: ease in and keep swims short.
- Sun & sunscreen UV 0 · SPF 15

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 2 h 2 min to low tide at 5:27 am.
Tide coefficient 94 for the 11:09 am high tide and 88 for the 11:48 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 4.6 ft between the highest high and the lowest low: a large range for this place. 70 is an average tide here; 90 and above means spring tides; below 45, neap tides. What is the tide coefficient?
2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on February 4 (6.5 ft) and the lowest, on December 26 (0.3 ft).
Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.
Heights above chart datum: the lowest astronomical tide (LAT), the zero of nautical charts in Europe. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. chart datum (LAT)
Tide coefficient and range in October
The biggest tides of the month came from October 26 to 28 (coefficient 101, 5.0 ft range). The smallest, on October 19 (coefficient 27, 1.9 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Trøllanes has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Fuglafjørður (DMI), 7.7 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 Trøllanes
Sea stateSea state: moderate
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common3.1 ft
- Significant6.3 ft
- Highest expectedHighest13 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 13 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 13 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces north and the wind comes off the land at an angle: calmer water near the shore, and bait and boats drift out to sea.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves ease over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Thursday 29: 7.5 ft with a period of 9 s, from the west-northwest (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.
Water warmer than normal for late October (+1.7 °F).

Surf in Trøllanes today
Surf today
Good- 2.9–4.4 ft surf at the shore, a good size with some punch
- 3.7 ft swell at 8 s from the north-northwest, a bit short
- Light offshore wind (7 mph): it holds up and grooms the waves
- Falling tide (low tide at 5:49 pm)
- Light: First light 7:03 am · sunrise 7:52 am · sunset 4:29 pm · last light 5:17 pm
- Tide: low 5:27 am (1.4 ft), high 11:09 am (5.7 ft), low 5:49 pm (1.1 ft) and high 11:48 pm (5.5 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 50.2 °F: a 6/5 hooded fullsuit with booties and gloves.
- Energy: 169 kJ · Medium power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm, has a good size and light offshore wind.
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.
Diving in Trøllanes today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: poor- 3.9 ft swell at 8 s from the north-northwest: some surge on the bottom
- Light offshore wind (6 mph)
- 1.1 mph current toward the east-northeast (model)
- Sun high: more light underwater
- Slack water today: low tide 5:27 am (5:00–5:42 am), high tide 11:09 am (10:40–11:30 am), low tide 5:49 pm (5:30–6:10 pm) and high tide 11:48 pm (11:20 pm–12:10 am)
- Likely visibility: poor. Swell (up to 6.8 ft at 10 s) and wind over the last few days have stirred up the water. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 50.2 °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 5:17 pm. Waning gibbous (85%), rising at 3:31 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 9:50 am to 10:30 am, combines light wind and the sun high, though with some swell and current. Also worth a look from 1:30 pm to 3:30 pm, with light wind, weak current and the sun high, though with tidal current and some swell.
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 226,641 mi away and looks 32′ 45″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: high- 1:54–3:54 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:26–4:26 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 2:50–3:50 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 3:01–4:01 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. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.5 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. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 0.6 mi and 66 ft at 0.9 mi from shore.
Rough estimate: here the data comes in cells of about 0.3 mi and misses details near shore (rocks, sandbars, small coves).
