About the tides at Grand Pass

Grand Pass usually gets one high and one low tide a day, known as a diurnal tide. Water here rises and falls only about 1.4 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.6 ft, comes on October 29, and the smallest, 0.4 ft, on Thursday. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 2.4 ft on October 2 and bottom out at −1.4 ft on January 20.

Predictions for Grand Pass come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here from 1980 to 1996 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Cat Island, 10 mi away, where high tide comes about 15 min earlier.

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.
