Tides

Tides in Klockestrand

Today's high and low tides

  • ▲ High tide 12:29 pm 0.0 ft
  • ▼ Low tide 8:47 pm -0.2 ft

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 13 h 4 min to high tide at 12:57 pm.

In Klockestrand 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 18 (0.6 ft) and the lowest, on May 16 (-0.6 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

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 5.0 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 5.0 ft.

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

In Klockestrand 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
  • 12:07–2:07 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 12:38–2:38 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 11:58 am–12:58 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 2:11–3:11 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

Drops off fast

The bottom drops off fast: the water is 33 ft deep just 450 ft from shore.

From the shoreline out to sea, heading west.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep210 ft
  • 33 ft deep450 ft
  • 66 ft deepnot within 1 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 25 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 450 ft from shore; 66 ft is far out (beyond 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) 1 mi out. 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.
