Your day at a glance

The best window, 12:00 am to 12:40 am, combines the 11:41 pm low tide, a major period and some swell. Also worth a try from 1:10 pm to 3:00 pm, with a major period, sunset and some swell, though with rising pressure and moderate wind. Also worth a try from 4:40 am to 6:40 am, with the 5:39 am high tide, sunrise and some swell, though with moderate wind.

Today's high and low tides

  • ▲ High tide 6:06 pm 9.9 ft · coef. 91

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 5 h 30 min to low tide at 11:58 am.

Tide coefficient 93 for the 5:39 am high tide and 91 for the 6:06 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 8.3 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 December 26 (10.3 ft) and the lowest, on August 15 (0.5 ft).

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

Heights above chart datum (CD), the zero of that port's nautical charts. 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 (CD)

Tide coefficient and range in October

The biggest tides of the month came from October 27 to 28 (coefficient 96, 8.8 ft range). The smallest, from October 19 to 20 (coefficient 36, 3.5 ft).

Where this tide comes from

A · Official station

Tides from the Berlevåg station (Kartverket), 0.0 mi from Berlevåg. Times and heights are its predictions. It is a NOAA subordinate station: its times and heights come from the Vardø reference station with the official corrections.

Licensed CC BY 4.0 (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/).

Sea and waves

The sea at Berlevåg

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: slight

Slight Douglas 3 · fresh breeze, Beaufort 5
Waves 2.8 ft · 6.5 s from the north (8°)
Swell 1.9 ft · 7.3 s from the northeast
Current 0.6 mph toward the ESE

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common1.4 ft
  • Significant2.8 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest5.7 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 5.7 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 5.7 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 14 mph SSW · gusts 27
Offshore (10 mi N)Offshore 21 mph SW · gusts 28

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

Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water is steady these days, with no sudden changes.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+2.4 °F).

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, 11:00 am to 12:50 pm, combines slack water at low tide, weak current and the sun high, though with moderate 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.

Never dive alone and check with the local dive shop: this rating is a guide, not a substitute for a professional.

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 0.3 mi from shore and 33 ft at 0.7 mi.

From the shoreline (0.75 mi from Berlevåg) out to sea, heading north.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep0.3 mi
  • 33 ft deep0.7 mi
  • 66 ft deep1.4 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.3 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 0.7 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, go by boat.

Rough estimate: here the data comes in cells of about 0.3 mi and misses details near shore (rocks, sandbars, small coves).
