↓ Falling The tide is falling. 52 min to low tide at 6:35 am.
Tide coefficient 94 for the 12:19 am high tide and 91 for the 12:37 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 5.5 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 October 27 (7.5 ft) and the lowest, on July 17 (0.3 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 26 to 28 (coefficient 99, 6.1 ft range). The smallest, on October 19 (coefficient 30, 1.6 ft).

The sea at Årset
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.4 ft
- Significant2.7 ft
- Highest expectedHighest5.6 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 5.6 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 5.6 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
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.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves ease over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Thursday 29: 2.9 ft with a period of 5 s, from the west (slight).
Water temperature

Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 11:40 am to 1:50 pm, combines slack water at high tide, weak current and the sun high, though with fresh wind. Also worth a look from 7:30 am to 8:30 am, with weak current, though with tidal current, moderate wind and low light.
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.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,618 mi away and looks 32′ 45″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: high- 1:58–3:58 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:31–4:31 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
Deepens quicklyThe bottom deepens quickly: 33 ft of water 800 ft from shore.
From the shoreline (1,000 ft from Årset) out to sea, heading southwest.
How far from shore
- 16 ft deep650 ft
- 33 ft deep800 ft
- 66 ft deep0.4 mi
- 164 ft deepnot within 1.4 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. 33 ft of water just 800 ft from shore: a good cast reaches deep water. Current and surf hit harder here.
- Swimming. The water gets deeper little by little, but a few dozen yards out you can no longer stand.
- Diving. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 800 ft and 66 ft at 0.4 mi from shore.
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) 1.4 mi out. The profile is turned slightly from the coast so it does not run into an island or a headland.
