About the tides at Little Wassaw Island
Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Green Island Sound, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. With a mean range of about 7.0 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 7.5 ft. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 9.3 ft on October 27 and bottom out at −1.6 ft on January 23.
Predictions for Little Wassaw Island come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here from 2022 to 2023 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Vernon View, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 37 min later. For tidal currents, see Little Don Island, east of, Vernon River.
