Tides in Söråker
Today's high and low tides
- ▲ High tide 12:38 pm 0.2 ft
- ▼ Low tide 8:57 pm 0.1 ft
↑ Rising The tide is rising. 13 h 9 min to high tide at 1:02 pm.
In Söråker 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 August 24 (0.3 ft) and the lowest, on April 20 (-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

The sea at Söråker
Sea stateSea state: smooth
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common0.7 ft
- Significant1.4 ft
- Highest expectedHighest3.1 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 3.1 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 3.1 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-shore wind. The coast faces southwest and the wind blows along the shore: drift and current run parallel to the beach.

Waves ease over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Wednesday 28: 3.7 ft with a period of 6 s, from the south-southeast (slight).
Water temperature

The moon in Söråker
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,461 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: high- 12:09–2:09 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 12:40–2:40 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 11:48 am–12:48 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 2:25–3:25 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

For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. 33 ft of water just 1,050 ft from shore: a good cast reaches deep water. Current and surf hit harder here.
- Swimming. The water gets deeper little by little, but a few dozen yards out you can no longer stand.
- Diving. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 1,050 ft and 66 ft at 0.3 mi 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. There is land ahead (an island, a headland or the far shore) 2.7 mi out.
