About the tides at Calcasieu Pass

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.2 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The mean range is small, about 1.2 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 1.8 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 28, with a range of 2.7 ft. Neap tides follow on Thursday, when the range shrinks to 1.0 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 2.4 ft on October 27, and the lowest is −1.4 ft on January 21.

East Jetty is a NOAA water level station with a live gauge, updated every 6 minutes. Predictions come from the station's own tide records. It also reports wind and air pressure. It was established in 1933. The nearest other station is East Calcasieu Lake, 16 mi away, where high tide comes about 3 h 24 m later. For tidal currents, see Calcasieu Pass, Cameron Fishing Pier.
