Tide coefficient 100 for the 1:03 am high tide and 98 for the 1:30 pm high tide. Big spring tides. The water rises and falls 8.8 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.

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 27 to 28 (coefficient 100, 8.9 ft range). The smallest, on October 19 (coefficient 29, 2.9 ft).

Where this tide comes from

B · Nearby station

Misvær has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Godøya (Kartverket), 11 mi away. On the open coast the difference is usually a few minutes and inches; inside estuaries, rivers and enclosed bays it can be much larger.

Sea and waves

The sea at Misvær

Hourly wind

Sea state

The wave model doesn't reach Misvær: it's on inland water (an estuary, sound or sheltered bay) or far from the open sea. Wind is still available right here.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 11 mph S · gusts 32

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

Offshore wind. The coast faces northwest and the wind blows from land out to sea: calm shore and clean waves, but watch the drift out to sea.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 12:19–2:19 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 12:51–2:51 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 quickly

The bottom deepens quickly: 33 ft of water 0.3 mi from shore.

From the shoreline (1,200 ft from Misvær) out to sea, heading northwest.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep0.25 mi
  • 33 ft deep0.3 mi
  • 66 ft deep0.5 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 2.2 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. 33 ft of water just 0.3 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 0.3 mi and 66 ft at 0.5 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) 2.2 mi out. Where the bottom comes up to the surface there are shoals, rocks or an islet next to the profile.
