About the tides at Swinomish Channel ent.
Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 2.0 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. With a mean range of about 5.4 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 8.7 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 10.6 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 2.3 ft, tomorrow. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 10.3 ft on December 26 and bottom out at −3.4 ft on December 24.
Predictions for Swinomish Channel ent. come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here from 1939 to 2016 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Turner Bay, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 6 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Skagit Bay channel, SW of Hope Island.
