About the tides at Hanalei Bay
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 pattern follows the reference station at Nawiliwili. The mean range is small, about 1.4 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. The next spring tides peak on October 12, with a range of 2.2 ft. Neap tides follow on Saturday, when the range shrinks to 1.7 ft.
Hanalei Bay is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Nawiliwili: highs come about 61 min and lows about 82 min earlier than there. The nearest other station is Hanamaulu Bay, 19 mi away, where high tide comes about 1 h 11 m later.
Predictions are based on Nawiliwili.
