About the Tides at Nelson Island

Nelson Island gets two high tides and two low tides most days, both about the same size. On a typical day the water rises and falls about 8.8 feet.

Over the next two weeks the biggest tides come on Tuesday, November 10, when the water moves about 9.7 feet. The lowest water is -0.2 ft on Monday, November 9 at 6:12 PM, and the highest is 9.6 ft on Wednesday, November 11 at 1:31 AM. A minus tide like that uncovers the most beach, flats and tide pools.
