About the tides at General Fish Company Pier

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 1.2 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. On a typical day the water moves about 3.4 ft between high and low. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 5.9 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 2.1 ft, on Saturday.

General Fish Company Pier is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Moss Landing, 0.2 mi away.

Tide predictions and water levels from NOAA CO-OPS. For planning only, not for navigation. Real water levels can differ because of wind, air pressure and river flow. Always check conditions on site.
