About the tides at James Island

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 1.2 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The pattern follows the reference station at Toke Point, Willapa Bay. The range is large, about 5.9 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 10.4 ft on December 24, and the lowest is −2.7 ft on July 5.

James Island is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Toke Point, Willapa Bay: highs come about 39 min and lows about 32 min earlier than there. The nearest other station is La Push, 0.7 mi away, where high tide comes about 5 min later. For tidal currents, see Quillayute River entrance.

Predictions are based on Toke Point, Willapa Bay.
