About the tides at Chicoutimi

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.58 m, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The tide range here is very large, about 3.43 m on average. Water can come in faster than you can walk across flats. Check the time before you go out. That is larger than most Quebec stations on this site. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 4.91 m. Neap tides follow on Tuesday, when the range shrinks to 2.58 m.

Chicoutimi is a CHS station with a live water level gauge. Predictions come from the station's own tidal analysis. It was established in 1924. The nearest other station is Grande-Anse, 17 km away, where high tide comes about 11 min earlier. Canadian tide heights use chart datum, a level set low on purpose. Negative heights are uncommon.
