About the tides at Tête-à-la-Baleine
Tête-à-la-Baleine has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. On a typical day the water moves about 1.07 m between high and low. That is smaller than most Quebec stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 1.67 m, comes today, and the smallest, 1.14 m, on Sunday.
Predictions for Tête-à-la-Baleine come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. It was established in 1975. The nearest other station is Baie des Moutons, 18 km away, where high tide comes about 5 min earlier. 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.
