About the tides at Midway Inlet North
Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.7 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The pattern follows the reference station at Springmaid Pier, Myrtle beach. On a typical day the water moves about 4.1 ft between high and low. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 5.4 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 4.4 ft, on Sunday.
Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Springmaid Pier, Myrtle beach, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Pawleys Island Pier (ocean), 1 mi away, where high tide comes about 10 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Butler Island, 0.3 mile south of.
Predictions are based on Springmaid Pier, Myrtle beach.
