About the tides at South of Sam Worth Game Management Area

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at South of Sam Worth Game Management Area, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The pattern follows the reference station at CHARLESTON (Customhouse Wharf). On a typical day the water moves about 3.5 ft between high and low. That is smaller than most South Carolina stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 4.4 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 3.8 ft, on Sunday.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at CHARLESTON (Customhouse Wharf), with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Carr Creek, 0.2 mi away, where high tide comes about 8 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Butler Island, 0.3 mile south of.

Predictions are based on CHARLESTON (Customhouse Wharf).
