About the tides at Whitestone Narrows
Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 1.5 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. With a mean range of about 7.8 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 10.0 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 14.1 ft, comes on October 27, and the smallest, 3.3 ft, tomorrow. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 12.8 ft on December 24 and bottom out at −3.0 ft on July 5.
Predictions for Whitestone Narrows come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here in 2013 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Olga Point, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 5 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Whitestone Narrows, S of Whitestone Point.
