About the tides at McClellanville

Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.7 ft. The pattern follows the reference station at Charleston, Cooper River Entrance. The average range is about 4.9 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 5.4 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 28, with a range of 6.5 ft. Neap tides follow today, when the range shrinks to 3.8 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 6.4 ft on October 1, and the lowest is −1.3 ft on January 23.

McClellanville is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Charleston, Cooper River Entrance: highs come about 31 min and lows about 24 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here from 1975 to 1976 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Casino Creek, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 9 min later. For tidal currents, see South Santee River entrance.

Predictions are based on Charleston, Cooper River Entrance.
