About the tides at Gaviota State Park

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 average range is about 3.8 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. The next spring tides peak on October 11, with a range of 5.8 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 2.0 ft.

This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. The nearest other station is Oil Platform Harvest, 26 mi away, where high tide comes about 14 min later.
