↑ Rising The tide is rising. 4 h 49 min to high tide at 5:37 am.

Tide coefficient 73 for the 5:37 am high tide and 71 for the 6:00 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 7.1 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 December 30 (9.4 ft) and the lowest, on April 30 (0.3 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

Sea and waves

The sea at Stördorf

Hourly wind

Sea state

The wave model doesn't reach Stördorf: it's on inland water (an estuary, sound or sheltered bay) or far from the open sea. Wind is still available right here.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 9 mph SW · gusts 17

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

Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces south and the wind comes in from the sea at an angle: a bit more surf at the shore and drift along the coast, toward land.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: high
  • 1:46–3:46 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:18–4:18 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 11:43 am–12:43 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 5:53–6:53 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: 6.2 ft at 490 ft.

From the shoreline out to sea, heading south.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deepnot within 490 ft
  • 33 ft deepnot within 490 ft
  • 66 ft deepnot within 490 ft
  • 164 ft deepnot within 490 ft

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Very shallow: the water doesn't reach 16 ft within 490 ft. Cast far from the beach, ideally around high tide.
  • Swimming. The water gets deeper little by little, but a few dozen yards out you can no longer stand.
  • Diving. Shallow: the water doesn't reach 33 ft within 490 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) 490 ft out.
