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.

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 14 min later.
