About the tides at Five Islands

Five Islands has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. Five Islands sees a mean range of about 10.86 m. Low tide can expose a wide area, and the return is fast. That is larger than most Nova Scotia stations on this site.

Predictions for Five Islands come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. The nearest other station is Parrsboro, 15 km away, where high tide comes about 7 min later. 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.
