Tide coefficient 92 for the 8:30 am high tide and 86 for the 9:05 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 3.1 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 December 26 (4.0 ft) and the lowest, on March 21 (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)

Tide coefficient and range in October

The biggest tides of the month came from October 26 to 28 (coefficient 102, 3.2 ft range). The smallest, on October 19 (coefficient 23, 1.2 ft).

Sea and waves

The sea at Tvøroyri

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: moderate

Moderate Douglas 4 · moderate breeze, Beaufort 4
Waves 6.9 ft · 8.3 s from the southwest (230°)
Swell 5.1 ft · 7.9 s from the southwest
Current 0.2 mph toward the ENE

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common3.5 ft
  • Significant6.9 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest14 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 14 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 14 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 11 mph SSW · gusts 28

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

Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces east and the wind comes off the land at an angle: calmer water near the shore, and bait and boats drift out to sea.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+1.5 °F).

Today’s surf at a glance

The best window, 7:01 am to 11:00 am, has light offshore wind, 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.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 7:50 am to 9:20 am, combines slack water at high tide, light wind and weak current, though with a big swell. Also worth a look from 12:50 pm to 1:30 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.

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
  • 1:53–2:53 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 3:58–4:58 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

Gentle slope

The bottom slopes gently: 16 ft deep 0.35 mi from shore and 33 ft at 0.5 mi. It reaches 164 ft at 1.2 mi.

From the shoreline (1.9 mi from Tvøroyri) out to sea, heading east.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep0.35 mi
  • 33 ft deep0.5 mi
  • 66 ft deep0.7 mi
  • 164 ft deep1.2 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.35 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 0.5 mi and 66 ft at 0.7 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).
