About the tides at McCarty Fiord
Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 1.7 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The range is large, about 9.1 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 11.4 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 11, with a range of 13.9 ft. Neap tides follow on Friday, when the range shrinks to 7.5 ft.
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 in 2022 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Chance Cove (Lagoon), 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 10 min earlier.
