Tides from the Manger station (Kartverket), 0.0 mi from Manger. Times and heights are its predictions. It is a NOAA subordinate station: its times and heights come from the Bergen reference station with the official corrections.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 11:40 am to 1:30 pm, combines slack water at high tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high.

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
  • 2:04–4:04 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 2:37–4:37 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 1:36–2:36 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 4:36–5:36 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 fast

The bottom drops off fast: the water is 33 ft deep just 550 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 0.7 mi.

From the shoreline (1.3 mi from Manger) out to sea, heading west.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep150 ft
  • 33 ft deep550 ft
  • 66 ft deep650 ft
  • 164 ft deep0.7 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 17 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 550 ft and 66 ft at 650 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. Where the bottom comes up to the surface there are shoals, rocks or an islet next to the profile.
