Tide coefficient 92 for the 10:43 am high tide and 87 for the 11:50 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 3.3 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 3 (4.8 ft) and the lowest, on August 14 (0.2 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)

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Norðdepil

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: slight

Slight Douglas 3 · fresh breeze, Beaufort 5
Waves 3.1 ft · 7.7 s from the northwest (305°)
Swell 2.3 ft · 6.7 s from the northwest
Current 0.1 mph toward the ESE

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common1.6 ft
  • Significant3.1 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest6.3 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 6.3 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 6.3 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 6 mph WSW · gusts 29
Offshore (14 mi N)Offshore 21 mph WSW · gusts 29

Offshore wind. The coast faces northeast and the wind blows from land out to sea: calm shore and clean waves, but watch the drift out to sea.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 9:50 am to 12:20 pm, combines slack water at high 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.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: high
  • 1:52–3:52 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:25–4:25 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 2:36–3:36 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 3:13–4:13 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 bottom: 0 ft at 650 ft.

From the shoreline out to sea, heading northeast.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deepnot within 650 ft
  • 33 ft deepnot within 650 ft
  • 66 ft deepnot within 650 ft
  • 164 ft deepnot within 650 ft

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Very shallow: the water doesn't reach 16 ft within 650 ft. 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 650 ft. 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) 650 ft out.
