About the tides at Patos Island Wharf

Patos Island Wharf has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The pattern follows the reference station at Port Townsend, Admiralty Inlet. With a mean range of about 5.7 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 9.4 ft, comes on Wednesday, and the smallest, 5.1 ft, on Saturday. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 10.2 ft on December 26 and bottom out at −3.6 ft on July 4.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Port Townsend, Admiralty Inlet, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Echo Bay, 4 mi away. For tidal currents, see Patos Island Light, 1.4 nm west of.

Predictions are based on Port Townsend, Admiralty Inlet.
