About the tides at Westport
Westport has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. The tide range here is very large, about 4.42 m on average. Water can come in faster than you can walk across flats. Check the time before you go out. That is larger than most Nova Scotia stations on this site. The next spring tides peak on November 23, with a range of 5.28 m. Neap tides follow on November 19, when the range shrinks to 3.50 m.
This is a prediction station. CHS calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. The nearest other station is Lighthouse Cove, 3.7 km away, where high tide comes about 5 min later. Canadian tide heights use chart datum, a level set low on purpose. Negative heights are uncommon.
