About the tides at Port aux Basques
Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.16 m, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The average range is about 0.86 m. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. The next spring tides peak on October 28, with a range of 1.50 m. Neap tides follow on Monday, when the range shrinks to 0.60 m.
Port aux Basques is a CHS station with a live water level gauge. Predictions come from the station's own tidal analysis. The nearest other station is Grand Bay, 3.4 km away. Canadian tide heights use chart datum, a level set low on purpose. Negative heights are uncommon.
Tide predictions and water levels from the Canadian Hydrographic Service. For planning only, not for navigation. Real water levels can differ because of wind, air pressure and river flow. Always check conditions on site.
