About the tides at Oakland Inner Harbor
Oakland Inner Harbor has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. On a typical day the water moves about 4.6 ft between high and low. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 6.4 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 8.4 ft, comes on October 27, and the smallest, 2.5 ft, on November 2. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 7.8 ft on December 23 and bottom out at −2.1 ft on December 24.
Predictions for Oakland Inner Harbor come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here from 1976 to 2011 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Oakland Harbor, Grove Street, 0.1 mi away, where high tide comes about 10 min later. For tidal currents, see Oakland Inner Harbor Reach.
