Today's high and low tides

  • ▲ High tide 9:43 pm 0.1 ft

↓ Falling The tide is falling. 1 h 59 min to low tide at 10:02 am.

In Kåge 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 18 (0.6 ft) and the lowest, on May 16 (-0.7 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 waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.5 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 2.0 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 2.0 ft.

Cross-offshore wind. The coast faces east and the wind comes off the land at an angle: calmer water near the shore, and bait and boats drift out to sea.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 8:20 am to 11:20 am, combines small waves, light wind and the sun high.

In Kåge 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
  • 12:58–2:58 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:30–3:30 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high 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 1 mi out for 33 ft of water.

From the shoreline (0.9 mi from Kåge) out to sea, heading southeast.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep0.7 mi
  • 33 ft deep1 mi
  • 66 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. About 9.5 ft of water 330 ft out: long casts help, and so does a rising tide, which brings fish closer in.
  • Swimming. The water gets deeper little by little, but a few dozen yards out you can no longer stand.
  • Diving. Shallow near shore: you only reach 33 ft at 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. Where the bottom comes up to the surface there are shoals, rocks or an islet next to the profile.
