About the tides at Richmond Inner Harbor

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 1.3 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The pattern follows the reference station at San Francisco, San Francisco Bay. On a typical day the water moves about 4.3 ft between high and low. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 6.0 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 7.2 ft, comes on November 22, and the smallest, 2.8 ft, on November 18. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 7.5 ft on December 24 and bottom out at −1.8 ft on December 24.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at San Francisco, San Francisco Bay, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. NOAA measured the tide here from 1977 to 1995 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Point Isabel, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 7 min later. For tidal currents, see Point Potrero Reach (buoy 10).

Predictions are based on San Francisco, San Francisco Bay.
