The best window, 7:00 am to 8:30 am, combines the 7:28 am low tide and sunrise, though with rising pressure and fresh wind. Also worth a try from 1:40 am to 2:20 am, with the 1:18 am high tide and a major period, though with rising pressure and fresh wind.

Species with the most records nearby: Atlantic cod, pollock, pollack and Atlantic halibut. October is one of the months when these are seen most: Atlantic halibut and haddock. What you can catch

The water rises and falls 7.7 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.

Where this tide comes from

A · Official station

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

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Gladstad

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: moderate

Moderate Douglas 4 · near gale, Beaufort 7
Waves 7.1 ft · 10.8 s from the west-southwest (256°)
Swell 6.6 ft · 9.8 s from the west-southwest
Current 1.0 mph toward the NE

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common3.5 ft
  • Significant7.1 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest14 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 14 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 14 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 21 mph SW · gusts 39

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

Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces northwest and the wind comes off the land at an angle: calmer water near the shore, and bait and boats drift out to sea.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 12:50 pm to 1:30 pm, combines slack water at high tide and the sun high, though with a big swell, fresh wind and current. Also worth a look from 7:00 am to 10:00 am, with slack water at low tide, though with tidal current, a big swell, fresh wind and current.

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.

Today's activity: high
  • 1:35–3:35 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:08–4:08 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.
