About the tides at Blaine

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 1.5 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The range is large, about 6.0 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 9.5 ft. The next spring tides peak on Tuesday, with a range of 9.4 ft. Neap tides follow on Saturday, when the range shrinks to 5.6 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 11.1 ft on December 25, and the lowest is −3.6 ft on December 24.

This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. NOAA measured the tide here from 1973 to 2011 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is White Rock, 2 mi away. For tidal currents, see Drayton Harbor Entrance.
