About the tides at Porpoise Bay

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.39 m, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. On a typical day the water moves about 1.29 m between high and low. That is smaller than most British Columbia stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.43 m, comes on October 29, and the smallest, 1.28 m, on Friday.

Predictions for Porpoise Bay come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. It was established in 1948. The nearest other station is Roberts Creek, 11 km away, where high tide comes about 2 h 2 m earlier. Heights are measured from chart datum, which in most Canadian tidal waters is set near the lowest normal tide. That is why lows here rarely go below zero.
