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

The sea at Evjen
Sea stateSea state: rough
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common5.9 ft
- Significant12 ft
- Highest expectedHighest24 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 24 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 24 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
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.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Wednesday 28: 12 ft with a period of 9 s, from the south-southwest (rough).
Water temperature

Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 7:00 am to 7:40 am, combines slack water at low tide, light wind and weak current, though with 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.

Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 12:25–2:25 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 12:56–2:56 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. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 1.6 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 2.4 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, go by boat.
Inside bays, estuaries and harbors the bottom changes a lot from spot to spot (channels and shoals): use this only as a rough guide.
