About the tides at Cuckolds Creek

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Cuckolds Creek, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The pattern follows the reference station at Fort Pulaski, Savannah River Entrance. On a typical day the water moves about 2.3 ft between high and low. That is smaller than most South Carolina stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 3.9 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 2.4 ft, on Sunday.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Fort Pulaski, Savannah River Entrance, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Bluff Plantation, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 28 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Williman Creek.

Predictions are based on Fort Pulaski, Savannah River Entrance.
