About the tides at Oakland Middle Harbor
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 4.4 ft between high and low. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 7.0 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 2.8 ft, on Saturday.
Oakland Middle Harbor is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Oakland, 0.7 mi away, where high tide comes about 7 min later. For tidal currents, see Oakland Inner Harbor entrance.
