About the tides at Kimshan Cove

Kimshan Cove 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 Elfin Cove, Port Althorp. The range is large, about 7.6 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. The next spring tides peak on October 11, with a range of 12.4 ft. Neap tides follow on Friday, when the range shrinks to 5.6 ft.

Kimshan Cove is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Elfin Cove, Port Althorp: highs come about 5 min and lows about 6 min later than there. The nearest other station is Elbow Passage, 5 mi away. For tidal currents, see Ogden Passage.

Predictions are based on Elfin Cove, Port Althorp.
