About the tides at Chevron Oil Company Pier
Chevron Oil Company Pier has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. On a typical day the water moves about 4.3 ft between high and low. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 6.0 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 6.3 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 1.4 ft, on Saturday. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 7.4 ft on December 24 and bottom out at −1.7 ft on December 24.
A live NOAA gauge measures the water here, and predictions are calculated from this station's own records. It also reports water temperature, wind and air pressure. It was established in 1947. The nearest other station is Point Orient, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 28 min later. For tidal currents, see Point Richmond, 0.8 nmi. Nnw of.
