About the tides at Avalon

Avalon has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The average range is about 3.7 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 5.3 ft. The next spring tides peak tomorrow, with a range of 6.0 ft. Neap tides follow on October 19, when the range shrinks to 1.0 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 7.2 ft on December 24, and the lowest is −1.9 ft on January 21.

This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. NOAA measured the tide here from 1975 to 2017 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Catalina Harbor, 12 mi away, where high tide comes about 11 min later.
