About the tides at Higgins Passage
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. With a mean range of about 2.64 m, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water.
Predictions for Higgins Passage come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. It was established in 1979. The nearest other station is Marvin Island, 5.4 km away, where high tide comes about 12 min later. For tidal currents, see Meyers Narrows, Meyers Passage. Heights are measured from chart datum, which in most Canadian tidal waters is set near the lowest normal tide. That is why lows here rarely go below zero.
