About the tides at Helmick Point

Helmick Point has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The range is large, about 7.6 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 10.2 ft. The next spring tides peak on Saturday, with a range of 11.4 ft. Neap tides follow on October 9, when the range shrinks to 7.4 ft.

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 in 2010 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Popokamute (Kokokamute), 11 mi away, where high tide comes about 46 min earlier.
