Today's high and low tides

  • ▼ Low tide 11:28 pm 0.0 ft

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 5 h 5 min to high tide at 7:31 am.

In Påskallavik the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.2 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 December 26 (0.4 ft) and the lowest, on May 1 (-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

Where this tide comes from

No significant tide

Tides from the Oskarshamn station (TICON-4), 7.6 mi from Påskallavik. Times and heights are its predictions.

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Påskallavik

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · light breeze, Beaufort 2
Waves 0.4 ft · 4.1 s from the southeast (139°)
Swell 0.4 ft · 3.5 s from the southeast
Current 0.1 mph toward the NE

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.2 ft
  • Significant0.4 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest0.9 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 0.9 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 0.9 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 3 mph SW · gusts 5
Offshore (12 mi S)Offshore 6 mph WSW · gusts 10

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

Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water cools over the next few days: about 47.6 °F by Wednesday 4.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+1.1 °F).

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

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

Solunar periods

Today's activity: high
  • 1:16–3:16 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:49–3:49 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 11:48 am–12:48 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 4:48–5:48 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

Shallow, gradual

Shallow, gradual bottom: you need to go 2.1 mi out for 33 ft of water.

From the shoreline (0.75 mi from Påskallavik) out to sea, heading east.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep550 ft
  • 33 ft deep2.1 mi
  • 66 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 550 ft): 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 2.1 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. The profile is turned slightly from the coast so it does not run into an island or a headland.
