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 0.87 m. Spring tides add a little more at both ends.

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, where high tide comes about 9 min later. Canadian tide heights use chart datum, a level set low on purpose. Negative heights are uncommon.
