The next spring tides peak on October 27, with a range of 5.8 ft. Neap tides follow today, when the range shrinks to 3.5 ft. 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.
