About the tides at Port Hawkesbury

Port Hawkesbury has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. The average range is about 1.21 m. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. The next spring tides peak on October 11, with a range of 1.57 m. Neap tides follow on Monday, when the range shrinks to 1.14 m.

Port Hawkesbury is a CHS station with a live water level gauge. Predictions come from the station's own tidal analysis. The nearest other station is Point Tupper, 2.1 km away. Canadian tide heights use chart datum, a level set low on purpose. Negative heights are uncommon.
