About the tides at Airstrip Point
Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.15 m, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. On a typical day the water moves about 0.80 m between high and low. That is smaller than most Nunavut stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 1.15 m, comes tomorrow, and the smallest, 0.49 m, on October 19.
Predictions for Airstrip Point come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. It was established in 1962. The nearest other station is Little Cornwallis Island, 78 km away, where high tide comes about 12 min later. Heights are measured from chart datum, which in most Canadian tidal waters is set near the lowest normal tide. That is why lows here rarely go below zero.
