About the tides at Apokak Creek entrance

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 6.5 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. With a mean range of about 9.0 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 15.2 ft, comes on Sunday, and the smallest, 9.4 ft, on October 9.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Platinum, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Popokamute (Kokokamute), 12 mi away, where high tide comes about 17 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Apokak Creek entrance.

Predictions are based on Platinum.
