About the tides at East Timbalier Island

Tides at Timbalier Bay are mostly diurnal: one rise and one fall a day, with a slow change between them. The mean range is small, about 1.2 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. The next spring tides peak on Saturday, with a range of 2.0 ft. Neap tides follow on October 8, when the range shrinks to 0.2 ft.

This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. NOAA measured the tide here from 1986 to 1988 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Port Fourchon, 6 mi away, where high tide comes about 27 min earlier.
