About the tides at Allston Creek

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.7 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The pattern follows the reference station at Springmaid Pier, Myrtle beach. On a typical day the water moves about 3.9 ft between high and low. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 5.2 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 4.3 ft, on Sunday.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Springmaid Pier, Myrtle beach, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. NOAA measured the tide here from 1974 to 1975 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Oaks Creek, 0.5 mi. above entrance, 0.6 mi away, where high tide comes about 14 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Butler Island, 0.3 mile south of.

Predictions are based on Springmaid Pier, Myrtle beach.
