Tide coefficient 95 for the 12:53 am high tide and 91 for the 1:11 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 7.1 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 (9.4 ft) and the lowest, on July 16 (0.5 ft).
Semidiurnal: two high and two low tides a day, of similar height.

Where this tide comes from
Tides from the Å i Åfjord station (Kartverket), 0.0 mi from Å. 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.

Licensed CC BY 4.0 (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/). Modified: TidePlanet applies the zone's time delay (-10 min) and height factor (0.98) to the harmonic constants of Rørvik in the Slackwater database (https://github.com/openwatersio/slackwater-database).
The sea at Å
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.1 ft
- Significant2.2 ft
- Highest expectedHighest4.5 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 4.5 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 4.5 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Onshore wind. The coast faces southwest and the wind blows straight in from the sea: more surf and backwash at the shore, and bait and boats drift toward land.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves ease over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Thursday 29: 5.3 ft with a period of 7 s, from the west (moderate).
Water temperature
Water temperature →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 at 49.1 °F: a drysuit, with hood, gloves and booties.

Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 12:30 pm to 2:00 pm, combines slack water at high tide, weak current and the sun high, though with waves and fresh wind. Also worth a look from 7:00 am to 10:00 am, with slack water at low tide and weak current, though with tidal current and fresh wind.
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.

Solunar periods
Today's activity: high- 1:42–3:42 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:15–4:15 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 0.4 mi from shore and 33 ft at 0.45 mi.

- 33 ft deep0.45 mi
- 66 ft deep0.55 mi
- 164 ft deepnot within 1.5 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.4 mi): 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. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 0.45 mi and 66 ft at 0.55 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) 1.5 mi out.
