About the tides at Jamaica Beach
Jamaica Beach usually gets one high and one low tide a day, known as a diurnal tide. The mean range is small, about 0.9 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. The next spring tides peak tomorrow, with a range of 1.1 ft. Neap tides follow on November 19, when the range shrinks to 0.3 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 1.4 ft on October 3, and the lowest is −0.9 ft on January 21.
This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. NOAA measured the tide here from 2019 to 2020 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Alligator Point, 9 mi away, where high tide comes about 1 h 26 m earlier. For tidal currents, see Galveston Causeway RR. bridge.
