About the tides at Red Bluff Bay

Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 1.4 ft. The tide range here is very large, about 10.4 ft on average. Water can come in faster than you can walk across flats. Check the time before you go out. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 12.8 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 27, with a range of 18.3 ft. Neap tides follow today, when the range shrinks to 6.7 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 15.5 ft on November 25, and the lowest is −3.6 ft on December 24.

This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. NOAA measured the tide here from 1926 to 2013 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Saginaw Bay, 16 mi away, where high tide comes about 8 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Kingsmill Point Light, 3 miles west of.
