About the tides at New Westminster

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.48 m, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. On a typical day the water moves about 1.43 m between high and low. That is smaller than most British Columbia stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.56 m, comes on October 29, and the smallest, 1.58 m, on October 23.

New Westminster is a CHS station with a live water level gauge. Predictions come from the station's own tidal analysis. It was established in 1959. The nearest other station is Port Moody, 10 km away, where high tide comes about 21 min earlier. Heights are measured from chart datum, which in most Canadian tidal waters is set near the lowest normal tide. That is why lows here rarely go below zero.
