About the tides at Waimea Bay

Waimea Bay 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 Nawiliwili, Nawiliwili Harbor, Kauai. The mean range is small, about 1.0 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. That is smaller than most Hawaii stations on this site. The next spring tides peak on November 22, with a range of 2.0 ft. Neap tides follow on Monday, when the range shrinks to 1.1 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 2.2 ft on December 24, and the lowest is −0.5 ft on January 21.

Waimea Bay is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Nawiliwili, Nawiliwili Harbor, Kauai: highs come about 7 min and lows about 18 min later than there. The nearest other station is Port Allen, 6 mi away, where high tide comes about 24 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Port Allen.

Predictions are based on Nawiliwili, Nawiliwili Harbor, Kauai.
