About the tides at Barnard Harbour
Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.49 m, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. Barnard Harbour sees a mean range of about 3.16 m. Low tide can expose a wide area, and the return is fast. That is larger than most British Columbia stations on this site.
Predictions for Barnard Harbour come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. It was established in 1953. The nearest other station is Butedale, 30 km away. Heights are measured from chart datum, which in most Canadian tidal waters is set near the lowest normal tide. That is why lows here rarely go below zero.
