About the tides at South Bend

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. With a mean range of about 7.7 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 9.8 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 11.6 ft, comes on Sunday, and the smallest, 4.6 ft, on October 16. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 12.0 ft on December 24 and bottom out at −2.9 ft on December 24.

Predictions for South Bend come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here in 1982 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Raymond, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 5 min later. For tidal currents, see South Bend, Willapa River.
