About the tides at Barbour Island

Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.8 ft. The pattern follows the reference station at Fort Pulaski, Savannah River. With a mean range of about 7.0 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 9.4 ft on October 27 and bottom out at −1.8 ft on January 23.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Fort Pulaski, Savannah River, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is South Newport River (Daymark 135), 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 19 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Cedar Hammock, south of.

Predictions are based on Fort Pulaski, Savannah River.
