Tides

Tides in Kagghamra

Today's high and low tides

  • ▼ Low tide 12:28 am -0.1 ft
  • ▲ High tide 8:10 am 0.1 ft
  • ▲ High tide 6:58 pm 0.0 ft

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 6 h 31 min to low tide at 2:53 pm.

In Kagghamra 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 January 3 (0.5 ft) and the lowest, on April 29 (-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 Södertälje E4-bron station (TICON-4), 6.8 mi from Kagghamra. Times and heights are its predictions.

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Kagghamra

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: smooth

Smooth Douglas 2 · moderate breeze, Beaufort 4
Waves 0.7 ft · 3.3 s from the south (185°)
Swell 0.4 ft · 3.3 s from the south
Current 0.1 mph toward the E

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.4 ft
  • Significant0.7 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest1.5 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 1.5 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 1.5 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 4 mph SSW · gusts 8
Offshore (25 mi S)Offshore 15 mph SW · gusts 21

Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces southwest 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.

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 47.0 °F by Wednesday 4.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+1.8 °F).

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 8:30 am to 11:30 am, combines little swell, light wind, weak current and the sun high.

In Kagghamra 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
  • 1:11–3:11 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:43–3:43 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 12:11–1:11 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 4:14–5:14 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

Deepens quickly

The bottom deepens quickly: 33 ft of water 1,250 ft from shore.

From the shoreline (0.3 mi from Kagghamra) out to sea, heading southwest.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep430 ft
  • 33 ft deep1,250 ft
  • 66 ft deep1.1 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 2.2 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 15 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. 33 ft deep 1,250 ft from shore; 66 ft is far out (1.1 mi): for deeper dives, 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) 2.2 mi out. The profile is turned slightly from the coast so it does not run into an island or a headland. 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.
