About the tides at Whaletown

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.61 m, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The range is large, about 2.23 m on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. The next spring tides peak on October 13, with a range of 3.70 m. Neap tides follow on Friday, when the range shrinks to 2.64 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 Gorge Harbour, 4.8 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.
