About the tides at Nas Whidbey Island
This is a mixed-tide station. Some days bring a deep low and a shallow low, and a few days have only one of each. On a typical day the water moves about 4.6 ft between high and low. That is smaller than most Washington stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 7.4 ft. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 8.9 ft on December 23 and bottom out at −3.1 ft on July 4.
Predictions for Nas Whidbey Island come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here in 2016 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Sunset Beach, 5 mi away, where high tide comes about 21 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Deception Pass (Narrows).
