Tides in Mjällom

Today's high and low tides

  • ▼ Low tide 9:24 pm -0.1 ft

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 12 h 19 min to high tide at 12:57 pm.

In Mjällom 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

Where this tide comes from

No significant tide

Tides from the Lunde station (TICON-4), 19 mi from Mjällom. Times and heights are its predictions.

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Mjällom

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: slight

Slight Douglas 3 · gentle breeze, Beaufort 3
Waves 2.6 ft · 4.4 s from the south (182°)
Swell 2.1 ft · 4.2 s from the south
Current 0.0 mph toward the E

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common1.3 ft
  • Significant2.6 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest5.3 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 5.3 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 5.3 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 6 mph SSW · gusts 13
Offshore (2.4 mi ENE)Offshore 12 mph SW · gusts 16

Cross-shore wind. The coast faces southeast and the wind blows along the shore: drift and current run parallel to the beach.

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 46.8 °F by Wednesday 4.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+3.2 °F).

Your diving day at a glance

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

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

Today's activity: high
  • 1:08–3:08 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:41–3:41 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

Drops off fast

The bottom drops off fast: the water is 33 ft deep just 310 ft from shore. It reaches 164 ft at 0.5 mi.

From the shoreline (2.3 mi from Mjällom) out to sea, heading southeast.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep240 ft
  • 33 ft deep310 ft
  • 66 ft deep420 ft
  • 164 ft deep0.5 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Deep water close in: about 36 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. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 310 ft and 66 ft at 420 ft from shore.

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. Right by the shore the bottom may drop even faster than shown.
