About the tides at Casino Creek
Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at ICWW, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The pattern follows the reference station at CHARLESTON (Customhouse Wharf). The average range is about 4.6 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 5.1 ft. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 5.5 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 4.8 ft.
Casino Creek is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting CHARLESTON (Customhouse Wharf): highs come about 40 min and lows about 53 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here from 1977 to 1979 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is South Santee River, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 17 min earlier. For tidal currents, see South Santee River entrance.
Predictions are based on CHARLESTON (Customhouse Wharf).
