↓ Falling The tide is falling. 1 h 31 min to low tide at 7:58 am.
Tide coefficient 96 for the 1:47 am high tide and 92 for the 2:12 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 8.2 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 (10.8 ft) and the lowest, on August 14 (0.5 ft).
Semidiurnal: two high and two low tides a day, of similar height.

The sea at Løding
Sea stateSea state: moderate
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common3.6 ft
- Significant7.3 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
Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces west and the wind comes off the land at an angle: calmer water near the shore, and bait and boats drift out to sea.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves ease over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Thursday 29: 7.3 ft with a period of 11 s, from the west-southwest (moderate).
Water temperature

- Water at 47.3 °F: a drysuit, with hood, gloves and booties.

- Night dive: dark from 4:35 pm. Waning gibbous (85%): a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 1:30 pm to 2:50 pm, combines slack water at high tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high, though with waves. Also worth a look from 7:50 am to 9:00 am, with slack water at low tide, light wind and weak current, though with waves.
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- 1:24–3:24 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 1:56–3:56 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.

Water depth
Gentle slopeThe bottom slopes gently: 16 ft deep 650 ft from shore and 33 ft at 0.8 mi. It reaches 164 ft at 1.3 mi.
From the shoreline (0.45 mi from Løding) out to sea, heading southwest.
How far from shore
- 16 ft deep650 ft
- 33 ft deep0.8 mi
- 66 ft deep0.9 mi
- 164 ft deep1.3 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 650 ft): 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 0.8 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. The profile is turned slightly from the coast so it does not run into an island or a headland. Where the bottom comes up to the surface there are shoals, rocks or an islet next to the profile.
