About the tides at Strathcona Sound
Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.39 m, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The range is large, about 1.54 m on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. That is larger than most Nunavut stations on this site.
This is a prediction station. CHS calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. It was established in 1961. The nearest other station is Arctic Bay, 19 km away, where high tide comes about 16 min later. Canadian tide heights use chart datum, a level set low on purpose. Negative heights are uncommon.
Tide predictions and water levels from the Canadian Hydrographic Service. For planning only, not for navigation. Real water levels can differ because of wind, air pressure and river flow. Always check conditions on site.
