About the tides at San Mateo Bridge (east end)

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. The pattern follows the reference station at San Francisco, San Francisco Bay. The range is large, about 5.8 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. That is larger than most California stations on this site. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 9.0 ft on December 24, and the lowest is −1.8 ft on December 24.

San Mateo Bridge (east end) is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting San Francisco, San Francisco Bay: highs come about 48 min and lows about 79 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here from 1976 to 1977 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Alameda Creek, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 9 min later. For tidal currents, see Little Coyote Pt., 3.1 nmi. Ene of.

Predictions are based on San Francisco, San Francisco Bay.
