About the tides at Honolulu

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. Water here rises and falls only about 1.3 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 1.9 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.6 ft, comes on October 27, and the smallest, 1.5 ft, today. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 2.7 ft on July 3 and bottom out at −0.4 ft on January 20.

A live NOAA gauge measures the water here, and predictions are calculated from this station's own records. It also reports water temperature, wind and air pressure. It was established in 1905. The nearest other station is Pearl Harbor, 7 mi away, where high tide comes about 10 min later. For tidal currents, see Honolulu Harbor Entrance.

Tide predictions and water levels from NOAA CO-OPS. For planning only, not for navigation. Real water levels can differ because of wind, air pressure and river flow. Always check conditions on site.
