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.

Where this tide comes from

Tides from the Lauvsnes station (Kartverket), 0.0 mi from Lauvsnes. 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.

Sea and waves

The sea at Lauvsnes

Waves 9.6 ft · 10.2 s from the west (261°)

The waves you may find

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 19 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 19 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

Cross-shore wind. The coast faces northwest and the wind blows along the shore: drift and current run parallel to the beach.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 7:00 am to 10:00 am, lines up with slack water at low tide, though with tidal current, a big swell, fresh wind and 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.

Today's activity: high
  • 1:40–3:40 am Major · the moon passes overhead · 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 slope

The bottom slopes gently: 16 ft deep 250 ft from shore and 33 ft at 0.5 mi. Right off the beach it already drops to about 22 ft.

From the shoreline (600 ft from Lauvsnes) out to sea, heading northwest.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep250 ft
  • 33 ft deep0.5 mi
  • 66 ft deep0.95 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 2.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 22 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. 33 ft deep 0.5 mi from shore; 66 ft is far out (0.95 mi): for deeper dives, 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. There is land ahead (an island, a headland or the far shore) 2.1 mi out. Right by the shore the bottom may drop even faster than shown. Where the bottom comes up to the surface there are shoals, rocks or an islet next to the profile.
