About the tides at Kayak Point
Kayak Point has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The pattern follows the reference station at SEATTLE (Madison St.), Elliott Bay. The range is large, about 7.4 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. The next spring tides peak tomorrow, with a range of 12.4 ft. Neap tides follow on October 11, when the range shrinks to 6.6 ft.
Kayak Point is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting SEATTLE (Madison St.), Elliott Bay: highs come about 0 min and lows about 2 min earlier than there. NOAA measured the tide here in 1977 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Tulare Beach, 2 mi away. For tidal currents, see Port Susan.
Predictions are based on SEATTLE (Madison St.), Elliott Bay.
