About the tides at Victoria Harbour

Victoria Harbour has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. On a typical day the water moves about 1.24 m between high and low. That is smaller than most British Columbia stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.01 m, comes on October 13, and the smallest, 1.31 m, on Thursday.

Victoria Harbour is a CHS station with a live water level gauge. Predictions come from the station's own tidal analysis. It was established in 1905. The nearest other station is Selkirk Water, 1.8 km away. For tidal currents, see Trial Island, 5.2 miles Ssw of. 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.
