About the tides at Point Buckler

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. The average range is about 3.9 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. The next spring tides peak tomorrow, with a range of 5.8 ft. Neap tides follow today, when the range shrinks to 4.4 ft.

Point Buckler is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Suisun Slough entrance, 3 mi away. For tidal currents, see Grizzly Bay entrance.

Tide predictions and water levels from NOAA CO-OPS. For planning only, not for navigation. Real water levels can differ because of wind, air pressure and river flow. Always check conditions on site.
