About the tides at Sand Head

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Sand Head, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The range is large, about 1.88 m on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. The next spring tides peak on Tuesday, with a range of 2.97 m. Neap tides follow on October 21, when the range shrinks to 0.79 m.

This is a prediction station. CHS calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. The nearest other station is Ship Sands Island, 11 km away, where high tide comes about 48 min later. Canadian tide heights use chart datum, a level set low on purpose. Negative heights are uncommon.
