About the tides at Les Escoumins
Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.55 m, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The range is large, about 2.91 m on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. That is larger than most Quebec stations on this site. The next spring tides peak on Sunday, with a range of 4.14 m. Neap tides follow on October 19, when the range shrinks to 1.65 m.
This is a prediction station. CHS calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. It was established in 1910. The nearest other station is Trois-Pistoles, 28 km away, where high tide comes about 7 min earlier. Canadian tide heights use chart datum, a level set low on purpose. Negative heights are uncommon.
