About the tides at High Island

High Island usually gets one high and one low tide a day, known as a diurnal tide. The mean range is small, about 1.0 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 1.3 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 30, with a range of 1.8 ft. Neap tides follow on Thursday, when the range shrinks to 0.4 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 2.0 ft on October 3, and the lowest is −1.1 ft on January 21.

High Island ICWW is a NOAA water level station with a live gauge, updated every 6 minutes. Predictions come from the station's own tide records. It also reports water temperature and wind. It was established in 2012. The nearest other station is Rollover Pass, 9 mi away, where high tide comes about 24 min earlier.
