About the tides at Texas Point

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. The mean range is small, about 1.3 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. That is larger than most Texas stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 1.9 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 28, with a range of 3.0 ft. Neap tides follow on Thursday, when the range shrinks to 1.0 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 2.7 ft on October 27, and the lowest is −1.5 ft on December 24.

Sabine Pass is a NOAA water level station with a live gauge, updated every 6 minutes. Predictions come from the station's own tide records. It also reports water temperature, wind and air pressure. It was established in 2011. The nearest other station is Sabine Pass, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 26 min later. For tidal currents, see Texas Point, 1.7 miles Sse of.

Tide predictions and water levels from NOAA CO-OPS. For planning only, not for navigation. Real water levels can differ because of wind, air pressure and river flow. Always check conditions on site.
