Tides

Tides in Sirevåg

Today's high and low tides

  • ▲ High tide 12:12 pm 2.0 ft
  • ▼ Low tide 6:21 pm 1.5 ft

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 5 h 25 min to low tide at 6:03 am.

In Sirevåg the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.5 ft between high and low tide. Here the sea level is moved mostly by wind and air pressure (storm surge), which can raise or lower it more than the tide itself.

2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on November 10 (2.1 ft) and the lowest, on April 17 (0.7 ft).

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)

Where this tide comes from

No significant tide

Tides from the Sirevåg station (Kartverket), 0.4 mi from Sirevåg. Times and heights are its predictions.

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Sirevåg

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: moderate

Moderate Douglas 4 · gentle breeze, Beaufort 3
Waves 6.9 ft · 7.9 s from the west (259°)
Swell 5.3 ft · 5.8 s from the southwest
Current 0.2 mph toward the W

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common3.4 ft
  • Significant6.9 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 8 mph WNW · gusts 13
Offshore (1.9 mi W)Offshore 11 mph WNW · gusts 16

Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces southwest and the wind comes in from the sea at an angle: a bit more surf at the shore and drift along the coast, toward land.

Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water is steady these days, with no sudden changes.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+2.4 °F).

Today’s surf at a glance

The best window, 7:03 am to 10:00 am, has a good size. 5:00 pm to 5:37 pm can also work, with a good size, though with a short-period swell.

An estimate for this stretch of coast, not for a specific break: every beach or reef works its own way (its tide, bottom and angle). Check it when you get there.

Follow the flags and the lifeguards, and don’t paddle out if the surf is above your level: this score is a guide, not a substitute for what you see when you get there.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 9:30 am to 12:30 pm, combines light wind, weak current and the sun high, though with some swell.

In Sirevåg the tide barely moves the water, so there's no slack to wait for: swell, wind and current are what count.

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: high
  • 2:01–4:01 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:33–4:33 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 12:52–1:52 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 5:14–6:14 pm Minor · moonrise · medium 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 1,250 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 2.3 mi.

From the shoreline (0.8 mi from Sirevåg) out to sea, heading southwest.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep900 ft
  • 33 ft deep1,250 ft
  • 66 ft deep0.3 mi
  • 164 ft deep2.3 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. 33 ft of water just 1,250 ft 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 1,250 ft and 66 ft at 0.3 mi from shore.
