Heights are above mean lower low water (MLLW) — roughly the average lowest tide — not above the dock or the sand. Times are local (PDT). The station sits on the downtown waterfront by the ferry landing, so these predictions are for the water right off Water Street; North Beach and Fort Worden run within a few minutes of the same times.

Predictions, not measurements

These are astronomical tide predictions. Wind, air pressure and storm surge can push the real water level well above or below them — in bad weather, check the National Weather Service forecast and warnings at weather.gov before trusting a number here. In an emergency on or near the water, call 911, or hail the Coast Guard on marine VHF channel 16.
