Where this tide comes from
Tides from the Batnfjordsøra station (Kartverket), 0.0 mi from Batnfjordsøra. Times and heights are its predictions. It is a NOAA subordinate station: its times and heights come from the Kristiansund reference station with the official corrections.

Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 11:50 am to 1:10 pm, combines slack water at high tide, little swell and the sun high, though with strong wind and current. Also worth a look from 3:30 pm to 4:30 pm, with little swell, though with tidal current, moderate wind and current. Also worth a look from 8:30 am to 10:50 am, with little swell, weak current and the sun high, though with tidal current and fresh 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.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,618 mi away and looks 32′ 45″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: high- 1:53–3:53 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:26–4:26 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.

For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. 33 ft of water just 0.25 mi 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 0.25 mi and 66 ft at 0.35 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.
