Today's high and low tides

  • ▼ Low tide 9:50 pm 0.0 ft

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 4 h 37 min to high tide at 5:27 am.

In Njutånger the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.1 ft between high and low tide. Here the sea level is moved mostly by wind and air pressure (storm surge), which can raise or lower it more than the tide itself.

2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on January 17 (0.4 ft) and the lowest, on April 30 (-0.5 ft).

Heights above mean sea level. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. mean sea level

Sea and waves

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 2.2 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 2.2 ft.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 8:40 am to 11:40 am, combines little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high.

In Njutånger the tide barely moves the water, so there's no slack to wait for: swell, wind and current are what count.

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
  • 1:14–3:14 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:46–3:46 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 1:15–2:15 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 3:17–4:17 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

Gentle slope

The bottom slopes gently: 16 ft deep 0.3 mi from shore and 33 ft at 0.75 mi.

From the shoreline (1,250 ft from Njutånger) out to sea, heading east.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep0.3 mi
  • 33 ft deep0.75 mi
  • 66 ft deepnot within 2.7 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 2.7 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.3 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. Shallow near shore: you only reach 33 ft at 0.75 mi. For dives deeper than 33 ft, 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) 2.7 mi out. The profile is turned slightly from the coast so it does not run into an island or a headland. Where the bottom comes up to the surface there are shoals, rocks or an islet next to the profile.
