About the tides at North Myrtle Beach

Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.3 ft. The pattern follows the reference station at CHARLESTON (Customhouse Wharf). The mean range is small, about 1.8 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. That is smaller than most South Carolina stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 2.2 ft. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 2.2 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 1.6 ft.

North Myrtle Beach is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting CHARLESTON (Customhouse Wharf): highs come about 135 min and lows about 192 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here in 1977 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Myrtle Beach Airport, 7 mi away, where high tide comes about 1 h 6 m earlier.

Predictions are based on CHARLESTON (Customhouse Wharf).
