About the tides at Woodland Beach
Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.7 ft. With a mean range of about 5.6 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 6.8 ft, comes on October 10, and the smallest, 5.4 ft, on Sunday.
Woodland Beach is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Ship John Shoal, 5 mi away, where high tide comes about 6 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Arnold Point, 1.8 nm WSW of.
