About the tides at Tybee Light
Tybee Light has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. The range is large, about 6.6 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 8.1 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 6.9 ft.
Tybee Light is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Fort Pulaski, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 10 min later. For tidal currents, see Savannah River Entrance (between jetties).
