About the tides at Louis Bay

Louis Bay has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The range is large, about 9.6 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 12.1 ft. The next spring tides peak on Sunday, with a range of 15.0 ft. Neap tides follow on October 16, when the range shrinks to 5.5 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 15.5 ft on November 25, and the lowest is −3.6 ft on July 5.

This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. NOAA measured the tide here from 1978 to 1998 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Herring Point, 4 mi away. For tidal currents, see Crafton Island - Knight Island Pass.
