About the tides at Ship Sands Island

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Ship Sands Island, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. On a typical day the water moves about 1.48 m between high and low. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.05 m, comes on October 27, and the smallest, 1.04 m, on Wednesday.

Predictions for Ship Sands Island come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. It was established in 1960. The nearest other station is Nicholson Creek, 10.0 km away, where high tide comes about 47 min later. Heights are measured from chart datum, which in most Canadian tidal waters is set near the lowest normal tide. That is why lows here rarely go below zero.
