Apple phone 6 wrong elevation

My Apple Watch 6 shows the wrong elevation and I cannot correct it. It’s says I 402 mts over sea level, and that’s when I m on a beach!! Any ideas what could be wrong.

Greetings jordanski,


We understand that you are having some difficulty using the compass on your Apple Watch, and we'd like to help.


Begin by removing any cases or screen protectors from your Apple Watch. Does that make a difference?


Also, does this happen in multiple areas, and do you have a clear view of the sky when it's happening? If it happens in just one location, try the steps here to see if they help: Use the compass on Apple Watch


If any issues remain, Contact Apple Support for further assistance.


Take care.
