About the tides at Pinole Point

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 1.0 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The average range is about 4.6 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 6.2 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 27, with a range of 8.4 ft. Neap tides follow tomorrow, when the range shrinks to 1.4 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 7.7 ft on December 24, and the lowest is −2.1 ft on December 24.

This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. NOAA measured the tide here from 1976 to 2011 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Hercules, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 19 min later. For tidal currents, see Pinole Point, 1.27 nmi. Nnw of.
