About the tides at Dungeness
This is a mixed-tide station. Some days bring a deep low and a shallow low, and a few days have only one of each. The pattern follows the reference station at Port Townsend, Admiralty Inlet. With a mean range of about 5.1 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. That is smaller than most Washington stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 10.5 ft, comes on October 28, and the smallest, 1.7 ft, on October 29. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 9.0 ft on December 26 and bottom out at −3.2 ft on July 4.
Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Port Townsend, Admiralty Inlet, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Sequim Bay entrance, 7 mi away, where high tide comes about 15 min later. For tidal currents, see New Dungeness Light, 2.8 mi. Nnw of.
Predictions are based on Port Townsend, Admiralty Inlet.
