About the tides at Lighthouse Point

Lighthouse 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 Galveston Pier 21, Galveston Channel. Water here rises and falls only about 1.6 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. That is larger than most Louisiana stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.5 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 0.7 ft, on November 19. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 2.9 ft on October 27 and bottom out at −1.7 ft on January 21.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Galveston Pier 21, Galveston Channel, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Southwest Pass, Vermilion Bay, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 44 min later.

Predictions are based on Galveston Pier 21, Galveston Channel.
