About the tides at Barataria Pass

Most days here have a single high and a single low. Around neap tides the pattern can blur into small double tides. The pattern follows the reference station at East Point, Grand Isle. Water here rises and falls only about 1.2 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.0 ft, comes on Friday, and the smallest, 0.3 ft, on October 8.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at East Point, Grand Isle, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is East Point, 1 mi away, where high tide comes about 1 h 0 m earlier. For tidal currents, see Barataria Pass, Barataria Bay.

Predictions are based on East Point, Grand Isle.
