About the tides at Bear Island

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Bear Island, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. With a mean range of about 1.96 m, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. That is larger than most Nunavut stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.60 m, comes today, and the smallest, 1.71 m, on October 7.

Predictions for Bear Island come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. It was established in 1956. The nearest other station is Long Island, 98 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.
