About the tides at Kahului

Kahului has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. Water here rises and falls only about 1.6 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 2.3 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.7 ft, comes on Monday, and the smallest, 1.3 ft, on October 19. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 3.1 ft on August 1 and bottom out at −0.8 ft on December 23.

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 1946. The nearest other station is Makena, 17 mi away, where high tide comes about 1 h 21 m later. For tidal currents, see Kahului Harbor.

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.
