About the tides at Cape Horn

This is a mixed-tide station. Some days bring a deep low and a shallow low, and a few days have only one of each. With a mean range of about 5.2 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. That is smaller than most Washington stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 6.4 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 7.9 ft, comes on October 25, and the smallest, 4.2 ft, on October 20. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 7.7 ft on November 25 and bottom out at −1.9 ft on December 24.

Predictions for Cape Horn come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here from 1937 to 2016 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Wauna, 6 mi away, where high tide comes about 11 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Cathlamet Channel, SE of Nassa Point.
