Tides

Tides in Korsnäs

Today's high and low tides

  • ▲ High tide 3:44 pm 0.3 ft

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 5 h 20 min to low tide at 7:14 am.

In Korsnäs the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.2 ft between high and low tide. Here the sea level is moved mostly by wind and air pressure (storm surge), which can raise or lower it more than the tide itself.

2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on December 12 (0.6 ft) and the lowest, on April 18 (-0.6 ft).

Heights above mean sea level. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. mean sea level

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Korsnäs

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: slight

Slight Douglas 3 · moderate breeze, Beaufort 4
Waves 2.1 ft · 3.8 s from the southwest (223°)
Swell 1.2 ft · 4.0 s from the west-southwest

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common1.0 ft
  • Significant2.1 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest4.4 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 4.4 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 4.4 ft.

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

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 44.2 °F by Wednesday 4.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+4.4 °F).

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 1:30 pm to 4:30 pm, combines little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also worth a look from 8:00 am to 10:30 am, with weak current, though with moderate wind.

In Korsnäs the tide barely moves the water, so there's no slack to wait for: swell, wind and current are what count.

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
  • 1:57–3:57 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:29–4:29 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high 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: you need to go 1.8 mi out for 33 ft of water.

From the shoreline (2.4 mi from Korsnäs) out to sea, heading west.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep0.85 mi
  • 33 ft deep1.8 mi
  • 66 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.85 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 near shore: you only reach 33 ft at 1.8 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, go by boat.

Inside bays, estuaries and harbors the bottom changes a lot from spot to spot (channels and shoals): use this only as a rough guide.
