About the tides at Rosario

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 4.9 ft between high and low. That is smaller than most Washington stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 7.9 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 9.4 ft, comes tomorrow, and the smallest, 1.2 ft, on Thursday. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 9.7 ft on December 25 and bottom out at −3.4 ft on July 4.

Predictions for Rosario come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here from 1973 to 2015 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Orcas, 5 mi away. For tidal currents, see East Sound, 0.2 mile SW of Rosario Point.
