About the tides at Point San Pedro
Point San Pedro 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 San Francisco, San Francisco Bay. The average range is about 4.2 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 5.9 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 28, with a range of 7.7 ft. Neap tides follow tomorrow, when the range shrinks to 1.6 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 7.3 ft on December 24, and the lowest is −1.7 ft on December 24.
Point San Pedro is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting San Francisco, San Francisco Bay: highs come about 62 min and lows about 67 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here from 1979 to 1980 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Point Orient, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 12 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Point San Pedro, 0.55 nmi. SE of.
Predictions are based on San Francisco, San Francisco Bay.
