About the tides at Coupeville

Coupeville has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The pattern follows the reference station at SEATTLE (Madison St.), Elliott Bay. The range is large, about 7.6 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 12.6 ft. Neap tides follow on October 11, when the range shrinks to 6.8 ft.

Coupeville is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting SEATTLE (Madison St.), Elliott Bay: highs come about 15 min and lows about 9 min later than there. The nearest other station is Point Partridge, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 55 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Point Wilson, 2.7 mi. NE of.

Predictions are based on SEATTLE (Madison St.), Elliott Bay.
