About the tides at Mission Bay

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 1.5 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The average range is about 3.8 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 5.5 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 25, with a range of 6.9 ft. Neap tides follow on Monday, when the range shrinks to 1.0 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 7.3 ft on December 24, and the lowest is −1.9 ft on January 21.

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 2017 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is La Jolla (Scripps Institution Wharf), 5 mi away, where high tide comes about 5 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Harbor Island (east end), Ssw of.
