Tides in Svarte
Today's high and low tides
- ▼ Low tide 12:30 am 0.0 ft
- ▲ Next high tide 9:23 am 0.3 ft
↑ Rising The tide is rising. 7 h 54 min to high tide at 9:23 am.
In Svarte the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.3 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 August 26 (0.4 ft) and the lowest, on May 3 (-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

The sea at Svarte
Sea stateSea state: smooth
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common0.7 ft
- Significant1.3 ft
- Highest expectedHighest2.8 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 2.8 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 2.8 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces south 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 stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Monday 2: 2.0 ft with a period of 3 s, from the south-southwest (slight).
Water temperature
Water temperature →Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water is steady these days, with no sudden changes.

Surf in Svarte today
Surf today
Poor- 0.7–1.1 ft surf at the shore, small: good for learning or a longboard
- 1.1 ft swell at 3 s from the southwest, short: weak, messy waves
- Light offshore wind (10 mph): it holds up and grooms the waves
- Light: First light 6:25 am · sunrise 7:04 am · sunset 4:33 pm · last light 5:12 pm
- Tide: We don’t have a reliable tide to show here.
- Water at 51.6 °F: a 6/5 hooded fullsuit with booties and gloves.
- Energy: 2 kJ · Low power
Today’s surf at a glance
The best window, 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm, has light offshore wind, though with small waves and a short-period swell.
An estimate for this stretch of coast, not for a specific break: every beach or reef works its own way (its tide, bottom and angle). Check it when you get there.
Follow the flags and the lifeguards, and don’t paddle out if the surf is above your level: this score is a guide, not a substitute for what you see when you get there.
Diving in Svarte today
Diving and snorkeling today
Likely visibility: good- 1.4 ft swell at 3 s from the southwest: barely any surge
- Light offshore wind (9 mph)
- 0.1 mph current toward the east, weak (model)
- Sun high: more light underwater
- Slack water today: none; the tide doesn't count here
- Likely visibility: good. The sea has been calm and there's been little rain. Based on the last 24 hours of data.
- Water at 51.6 °F: a 7 mm semi-dry suit, with hood, gloves and booties.
- Snorkeling: good, calm sea and light wind.
- Night dive: dark from 5:12 pm. Waning gibbous (85%), rising at 5:50 pm: a bright night.
Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 8:50 am to 11:50 am, combines little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high.
In Svarte 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.

The moon in Svarte
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,618 mi away and looks 32′ 45″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: high- 1:28–3:28 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:00–4:00 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 11:40 am–12:40 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 5:20–6:20 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.

For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 900 ft): cast far from the beach and fish the high tide, when there is more water close in.
- Swimming. The water gets deeper little by little, but a few dozen yards out you can no longer stand.
- Diving. 33 ft deep 0.6 mi from shore; 66 ft is far out (2.6 mi): for deeper dives, go by boat.
