About the tides at Frederick Sound
Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.43 m, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The average range is about 1.02 m. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is smaller than most British Columbia stations on this site. The next spring tides peak on November 23, with a range of 1.70 m. Neap tides follow on November 17, when the range shrinks to 0.99 m.
This is a prediction station. CHS calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. The nearest other station is Jessie Point, 11 km away, where high tide comes about 2 h 43 m earlier. Canadian tide heights use chart datum, a level set low on purpose. Negative heights are uncommon.
