About the tides at Kuheia Bay
Kuheia Bay 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 Honolulu, Honolulu Harbor, Oahu Island. Water here rises and falls only about 1.4 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 2.9 ft on July 3 and bottom out at −0.4 ft on January 20.
Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Honolulu, Honolulu Harbor, Oahu Island, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Makena, 11 mi away. For tidal currents, see Alalakeiki Channel.
Predictions are based on Honolulu, Honolulu Harbor, Oahu Island.
