About the tides at Little River (town)
Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Little River Town, Little R., each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The pattern follows the reference station at Charleston, Cooper River Entrance. The average range is about 4.3 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 5.8 ft on October 1, and the lowest is −1.2 ft on January 23.
Little River (town) is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Charleston, Cooper River Entrance: highs come about 13 min and lows about 39 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here from 1974 to 1975 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Dunn Sound, west end, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 16 min earlier.
Predictions are based on Charleston, Cooper River Entrance.
