About the tides at Clambank Creek
Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Clambank Creek Dock, Goat Island, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The average range is about 4.7 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 5.2 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 28, with a range of 6.2 ft. Neap tides follow on Monday, when the range shrinks to 3.3 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 6.2 ft on July 4, and the lowest is −1.2 ft on January 23.
This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. NOAA measured the tide here from 1976 to 1977 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Oyster Landing (N. Inlet Estuary), 1 mi away, where high tide comes about 18 min later. For tidal currents, see Lafayette swing bridge, Waccamaw River.
