About the tides at Laysan Island

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.5 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The pattern follows the reference station at Honolulu. The mean range is small, about 0.7 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. That is smaller than most Hawaii stations on this site. The next spring tides peak on Sunday, with a range of 1.1 ft. Neap tides follow on October 17, when the range shrinks to 0.7 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 1.4 ft on July 3, and the lowest is −0.2 ft on January 20.

Laysan Island is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Honolulu: highs come about 64 min and lows about 75 min later than there.

Predictions are based on Honolulu.
