About the tides at Bonavista

Bonavista 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 0.65 m between high and low. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 1.04 m, comes on October 12, and the smallest, 0.48 m, on Sunday.

Bonavista is a CHS station with a live water level gauge. Predictions come from the station's own tidal analysis. The nearest other station is Port Union, 17 km away, where high tide comes about 13 min earlier. 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.
