About the tides at Hog Inlet Pier
Hog Inlet Pier has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The pattern follows the reference station at Springmaid Pier, Myrtle beach. The average range is about 4.8 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 6.2 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 5.2 ft.
Hog Inlet Pier is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Springmaid Pier, Myrtle beach: highs come about 6 min and lows about 7 min earlier than there. NOAA measured the tide here from 1974 to 1976 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Dunn Sound, west end, 1 mi away, where high tide comes about 35 min later.
Predictions are based on Springmaid Pier, Myrtle beach.
