About the tides at Quatre Bayous Pass
Quatre Bayous Pass usually gets one high and one low tide a day, known as a diurnal tide. The pattern follows the reference station at Grand Isle, East Point. Water here rises and falls only about 1.6 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. That is larger than most Louisiana stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 1.9 ft, comes on Thursday, and the smallest, 0.4 ft, on November 19. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 2.3 ft on October 30 and bottom out at −1.3 ft on January 20.
Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Grand Isle, East Point, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Independence Island, 5 mi away, where high tide comes about 11 min later. For tidal currents, see Quatre Bayoux Pass, Barataria Bay.
Predictions are based on Grand Isle, East Point.
