About the tides at Gardiner

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. With a mean range of about 5.1 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. That is smaller than most Washington stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 9.0 ft, comes tomorrow, and the smallest, 2.2 ft, on October 13.

Gardiner is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Sequim Bay entrance, 6 mi away, where high tide comes about 8 min later. For tidal currents, see Kanem Point, 1.5 mi. SW of Protection Island.
