About the Tides at Affleck Canal Entrance
Affleck Canal Entrance gets two high tides and two low tides most days, and they are not a matched pair. One high or one low each day is clearly bigger than the other. On a typical day the water rises and falls about 10.2 feet.
Over the next two weeks the biggest tides come on Monday, November 9, when the water moves about 13.0 feet. The lowest water is -0.9 ft on Monday, November 9 at 6:46 PM, and the highest is 12.1 ft on Monday, November 9 at 11:54 AM. A minus tide like that uncovers the most beach, flats and tide pools.
