About the tides at Becher Bay
Becher Bay has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. On a typical day the water moves about 1.30 m between high and low. That is smaller than most British Columbia stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.15 m, comes tomorrow, and the smallest, 0.96 m, today.
Predictions for Becher Bay come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. It was established in 1954. The nearest other station is Pedder Bay, 4.0 km away, where high tide comes about 42 min later. For tidal currents, see Race Rocks, 4.5 mi. S of. 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.
