About the tides at Bishop Cut

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.8 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The average range is about 2.8 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is smaller than most California stations on this site. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 4.2 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 2.8 ft.

Bishop Cut is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Blackslough Landing, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 25 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Vulcan Island, 0.5 mile east of.
