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 pattern follows the reference station at Fort Pulaski, Savannah River. The range is large, about 6.6 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 8.8 ft on October 27, and the lowest is −1.8 ft on January 23.
Tybee Light is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Fort Pulaski, Savannah River: highs come about 10 min and lows about 12 min earlier than there. 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).
Predictions are based on Fort Pulaski, Savannah River.
