About the tides at Île Mackays
Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Île Mackays, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. Île Mackays sees a mean range of about 5.24 m. Low tide can expose a wide area, and the return is fast. That is larger than most Quebec stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 7.02 m, comes on October 12, and the smallest, 3.95 m, on Monday.
Predictions for Île Mackays come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. It was established in 1981. The nearest other station is The Narrows, 15 km away, where high tide comes about 44 min earlier. 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.
