Tide coefficient 95 for the 1:06 am high tide and 91 for the 1:26 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 8.7 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 (11.3 ft) and the lowest, on August 14 (0.5 ft).

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

Sea and waves

The sea at Skogn

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: calm (rippled)

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 0.7 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 0.7 ft.

Offshore wind. The coast faces north and the wind blows from land out to sea: calm shore and clean waves, but watch the drift out to sea.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 12:40 pm to 2:10 pm, combines slack water at high tide, little swell, weak current and the sun high, though with moderate wind. Also worth a look from 6:50 am to 7:30 am, with slack water at low tide, little swell, light wind and weak current, though with low light.

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
  • 1:38–3:38 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:11–4:11 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

Drops off fast

The bottom drops off fast: the water is 33 ft deep just 370 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 1.3 mi.

From the shoreline (0.55 mi from Skogn) out to sea, heading north.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep150 ft
  • 33 ft deep370 ft
  • 66 ft deep700 ft
  • 164 ft deep1.3 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 29 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 370 ft and 66 ft at 700 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. Right by the shore the bottom may drop even faster than shown.
