About the tides at Doctor Island

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Doctor Island, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. Doctor Island sees a mean range of about 5.35 m. Low tide can expose a wide area, and the return is fast. That is larger than most Quebec stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 7.57 m, comes today, and the smallest, 2.79 m, on Monday.

Predictions for Doctor Island come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. It was established in 1959. The nearest other station is Stupart Bay, 11 km away, where high tide comes about 28 min earlier. Heights are measured from chart datum, which in most Canadian tidal waters is set near the lowest normal tide. That is why lows here rarely go below zero.
