About the tides at Charlottetown

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Charlottetown, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. With a mean range of about 1.52 m, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. That is larger than most Prince Edward Island stations on this site.

Charlottetown is a CHS station with a live water level gauge. Predictions come from the station's own tidal analysis. The nearest other station is Canoe Cove, 17 km away, where high tide comes about 6 min later. 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.
