About the tides at Aransas

This is a mixed-tide station. Some days bring a deep low and a shallow low, and a few days have only one of each. The mean range is small, about 1.1 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 1.4 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 2.1 ft on October 29, and the lowest is −1.2 ft on January 21.

Aransas Pass is a NOAA water level station with a live gauge, updated every 6 minutes. Predictions come from the station's own tide records. It also reports wind and air pressure. It was established in 2016. The nearest other station is Port Aransas (H. Caldwell Pier), 1.0 mi away, where high tide comes about 18 min later. For tidal currents, see Utsmi Research Pier (midchannel).

Tide predictions and water levels from NOAA CO-OPS. For planning only, not for navigation. Real water levels can differ because of wind, air pressure and river flow. Always check conditions on site.
