About the tides at Valdes Island
Valdes Island has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. With a mean range of about 2.14 m, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water.
Predictions for Valdes Island come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. It was established in 1963. The nearest other station is Cardale Point, 4.6 km away, where high tide comes about 20 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.
Tide predictions and water levels from the Canadian Hydrographic Service. For planning only, not for navigation. Real water levels can differ because of wind, air pressure and river flow. Always check conditions on site.
