About the tides at Bayou Chene

Bayou Chene usually gets one high and one low tide a day, known as a diurnal tide. Water here rises and falls only about 0.9 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. That is smaller than most Louisiana stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 1.3 ft, comes on October 27, and the smallest, 0.1 ft, on October 23. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 1.7 ft on June 5 and bottom out at −0.7 ft on November 26.

Predictions for Bayou Chene come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here in 2024 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Rat Bayou, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 25 min later.

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.
