About the tides at Waianae
Waianae has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The pattern follows the reference station at Honolulu, Honolulu Harbor, Oahu Island. The mean range is small, about 1.1 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 2.5 ft on July 3, and the lowest is −0.4 ft on January 20.
Waianae is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Honolulu, Honolulu Harbor, Oahu Island: highs come about 20 min and lows about 18 min later than there. The nearest other station is Haleiwa, 12 mi away, where high tide comes about 1 h 22 m earlier. For tidal currents, see Barbers Point Jetty.
Predictions are based on Honolulu, Honolulu Harbor, Oahu Island.
