Today's high and low tides

- ▲ High tide 6:44 pm 2.5 ft · coef. 69
↓ Falling The tide is falling. 4 h 28 min to low tide at 11:50 am.
Tide coefficient 69 for the 6:12 am high tide and 69 for the 6:44 pm high tide. Low coefficient. The water rises and falls 1.0 ft between the highest high and the lowest low: an average 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 5 (2.6 ft) and the lowest, on April 26 (0.7 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 6 to 7 (coefficient 89, 1.2 ft range). The smallest, from October 14 to 15 (coefficient 48, 0.7 ft).

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

The sea at Herre
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.6 ft
- Significant3.2 ft
- Highest expectedHighest6.7 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 6.7 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 6.7 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-shore wind. The coast faces northeast and the wind blows along the shore: drift and current run parallel to the beach.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves ease over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Thursday 29: 4.4 ft with a period of 6 s, from the south-southwest (moderate).
Water temperature
Water temperature →Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water cools over the next few days: about 49.6 °F by Wednesday 4.
Water warmer than normal for late October (+2.4 °F).

Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 10:50 am to 12:30 pm, combines slack water at low tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 2:50 pm to 4:40 pm, with light wind and weak 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.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,618 mi away and looks 32′ 45″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: high- 1:45–3:45 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:18–4:18 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 12:46–1:46 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 4:49–5:49 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
Drops off fastThe bottom drops off fast: the water is 33 ft deep just 110 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 1,000 ft.
From the shoreline (1,200 ft from Herre) out to sea, heading northeast.
How far from shore
- 16 ft deep60 ft
- 33 ft deep110 ft
- 66 ft deep220 ft
- 164 ft deep1,000 ft
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 101 ft just 330 ft out. Good for casting from rocks, jetties or the beach itself; current and surf hit harder here.
- Swimming. The bottom drops quickly near the shore and you are soon out of your depth. Keep an eye on kids and weak swimmers.
- Diving. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 110 ft and 66 ft at 220 ft 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) 1.7 mi out. Right by the shore the bottom may drop even faster than shown.
