About the tides at Franklin Bay
Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.06 m, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. Water here rises and falls only about 0.21 m on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. That is smaller than most Northwest Territories stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 0.38 m, comes today, and the smallest, 0.22 m, on Monday.
Predictions for Franklin Bay come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. It was established in 1970. The nearest other station is Baillie Is. (South Spit), 83 km away, where high tide comes about 39 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.
Tide predictions and water levels from the Canadian Hydrographic Service. For planning only, not for navigation. Real water levels can differ because of wind, air pressure and river flow. Always check conditions on site.
