About the tides at Berkeley

Berkeley 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 4.3 ft between high and low. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 6.1 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 8.3 ft, comes on October 28, and the smallest, 2.4 ft, on November 2. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 7.6 ft on December 23 and bottom out at −2.1 ft on December 24.

Predictions for Berkeley 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 1979 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Point Isabel, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 7 min later. For tidal currents, see Emeryville Marina.
