About the tides at Wauna

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 9.6 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. That is larger than most Washington stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 13.5 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 17.3 ft, comes on October 29, and the smallest, 9.2 ft, on Sunday. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 15.9 ft on January 24 and bottom out at −4.3 ft on July 4.

Predictions for Wauna 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 1917 to 2015 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Gig Harbor, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 13 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Gig Harbor Entrance.
