About the tides at Waldron Island

This is a mixed-tide station. Some days bring a deep low and a shallow low, and a few days have only one of each. With a mean range of about 5.4 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 8.4 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 8.5 ft, comes on Wednesday, and the smallest, 5.5 ft, on October 22. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 10.2 ft on December 25 and bottom out at −3.6 ft on July 4.

Predictions for Waldron Island come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here from 2015 to 2016 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Narvaez Bay, 7 mi away. For tidal currents, see President Channel, East of Point Disney.
