About the tides at El Segundo

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 1.4 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The pattern follows the reference station at Los Angeles, Outer Harbor. On a typical day the water moves about 3.7 ft between high and low. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 7.3 ft, comes on October 27, and the smallest, 1.0 ft, on Monday. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 7.0 ft on December 24 and bottom out at −1.8 ft on January 21.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Los Angeles, Outer Harbor, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is King Harbor, 5 mi away, where high tide comes about 5 min earlier.

Predictions are based on Los Angeles, Outer Harbor.
