About the tides at Galt Island

This is a mixed-tide station. Some days bring a deep low and a shallow low, and a few days have only one of each. The mean range is small, about 1.4 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. The next spring tides peak tomorrow, with a range of 2.5 ft. Neap tides follow on October 8, when the range shrinks to 1.4 ft.

Galt Island is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is St. James City, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 36 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Point Ybel, 0.4 mile northwest of.
