  • ▼ Low tide 11:39 pm 2.2 ft

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 3 h 1 min to low tide at 11:18 am.

Tide coefficient 75 for the 4:25 am high tide and 74 for the 4:47 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 13.0 ft between the highest high and the lowest low: an average 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 January 25 (16.3 ft) and the lowest, on April 30 (0.7 ft).

Semidiurnal: two high and two low tides a day, of similar height.

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 10 to 12 (coefficient 84, 15.0 ft range). The smallest, from October 20 to 22 (coefficient 52, 8.6 ft).

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 10:30 am to 11:50 am, combines slack water at low tide, small waves, light wind and the sun high. Also good from 4:00 pm to 5:00 pm, with slack water at high tide, small waves and light wind.

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: medium
  • 1:49–3:49 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:22–4:22 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 11:40 am–12:40 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 6:03–7:03 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

Shallow, gradual bottom: 0 ft at 1,000 ft.

From the shoreline (0.3 mi from Lemwerder) out to sea, heading northeast.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deepnot within 1,000 ft
  • 33 ft deepnot within 1,000 ft
  • 66 ft deepnot within 1,000 ft
  • 164 ft deepnot within 1,000 ft

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Very shallow: the water doesn't reach 16 ft within 1,000 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 1,000 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) 1,000 ft out.
