Semidiurnal: two high and two low tides a day, of similar height.

The sea at Opphaug
Sea stateSea state: slight
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common1.6 ft
- Significant3.1 ft
- Highest expectedHighest6.5 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 6.5 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 6.5 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces northwest 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.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves ease over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Thursday 29: 5.6 ft with a period of 6 s, from the west (moderate).
Water temperature

Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 12:20 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.

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
- 2:17–4:17 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 0.55 mi from shore and 33 ft at 0.6 mi. It reaches 164 ft at 1.1 mi.

- 33 ft deep0.6 mi
- 66 ft deep1 mi
- 164 ft deep1.1 mi
For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.55 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. 33 ft deep 0.6 mi from shore; 66 ft is far out (1 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. The profile is turned slightly from the coast so it does not run into an island or a headland.
