About the tides at The Rigolets

The Rigolets usually gets one high and one low tide a day, known as a diurnal tide. The mean range is small, about 0.7 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. That is smaller than most Louisiana stations on this site. The next spring tides peak on October 30, with a range of 1.2 ft. Neap tides follow on Friday, when the range shrinks to 0.3 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 1.3 ft on October 3, and the lowest is −0.8 ft on January 20.

This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. NOAA measured the tide here from 1980 to 2014 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Chef Menteur, 8 mi away, where high tide comes about 30 min later.
