About the tides at Grand Bay

Tides at Olga Compressor Station, Grand Bay are mostly diurnal: one rise and one fall a day, with a slow change between them. The mean range is small, about 1.2 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. The next spring tides peak on October 30, with a range of 2.2 ft. Neap tides follow on Friday, when the range shrinks to 0.3 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 1.9 ft on December 23, and the lowest is −0.7 ft on July 3.

This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. NOAA measured the tide here from 1985 to 2009 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Jack Bay, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 44 min later.

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.
