About the tides at Port Moller

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 2.1 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. With a mean range of about 7.4 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 10.5 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 13.1 ft, comes on Saturday, and the smallest, 7.9 ft, on October 9.

A live NOAA gauge measures the water here, and predictions are calculated from this station's own records. It also reports water temperature and air pressure. It was established in 1960. The nearest other station is Albatross Anchorage, 27 mi away, where high tide comes about 4 h 21 m later. For tidal currents, see Entrance Point.
