About the tides at Haig Point
Haig Point has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. With a mean range of about 6.8 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. That is larger than most South Carolina stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 8.4 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 7.2 ft, on Sunday.
Haig Point is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Bull Creek, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 8 min later. For tidal currents, see Haig Point Light, NW of, Cooper River.
