About the tides at Beacon Island
Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Beacon Island, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. Beacon Island sees a mean range of about 7.44 m. Low tide can expose a wide area, and the return is fast. That is larger than most Quebec stations on this site.
Predictions for Beacon Island come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. It was established in 1978. The nearest other station is Kangiqsualujjuaq, 34 km away, where high tide comes about 14 min later. 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.
