About the tides at Port Union
This is a mixed-tide station. Some days bring a deep low and a shallow low, and a few days have only one of each. On a typical day the water moves about 0.63 m between high and low.
Predictions for Port Union come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. The nearest other station is Bonavista, 17 km away, where high tide comes about 10 min later. 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.
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.
