About the tides at Holland Island Bar Light

Holland Island Bar Light has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. 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 today, with a range of 1.8 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 1.4 ft.

Holland Island Bar Light is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Ewell, 6 mi away, where high tide comes about 29 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Kedges Strait Buoy '4'.
