About the tides at Caribou
Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.15 m, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The average range is about 0.95 m. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is smaller than most Nova Scotia stations on this site. The next spring tides peak on Friday, with a range of 1.60 m. Neap tides follow on October 9, when the range shrinks to 1.16 m.
Caribou is a CHS station with a live water level gauge. Predictions come from the station's own tidal analysis. It was established in 2025. The nearest other station is Pictou, 7.3 km away. Canadian tide heights use chart datum, a level set low on purpose. Negative heights are uncommon.
Tide predictions and water levels from the Canadian Hydrographic Service. For planning only, not for navigation. Real water levels can differ because of wind, air pressure and river flow. Always check conditions on site.
