About the tides at Daufuskie Landing
Daufuskie Landing has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. With a mean range of about 6.8 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. That is larger than most South Carolina stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 8.3 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 7.1 ft, on Sunday.
Daufuskie Landing is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Hargray Pier, 0.4 mi away, where high tide comes about 11 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Daufuskie Landing Light, south of.
