About the tides at Mystery Bay
Mystery 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 5.2 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. That is smaller than most Washington stations on this site. The next spring tides peak tomorrow, with a range of 9.2 ft. Neap tides follow on October 11, when the range shrinks to 3.4 ft.
Mystery Bay is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Marrowstone Point, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 13 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Nodule Point, 0.5 mi. SE of.
