About the Tides at Driftwood Point
Driftwood Point gets just one high tide and one low tide on most days, instead of the two a day many coasts see. On a typical day the water rises and falls about 0.5 feet. Tides here are small, so wind and river flow can move the water as much as the tide does.
Over the next two weeks the biggest tides come on Wednesday, November 11, when the water moves about 0.6 feet. The lowest water is 0.1 ft on Thursday, November 12 at 2:50 PM, and the highest is 0.7 ft on Wednesday, November 11 at 1:21 AM.
NOAA predicts the tides here from years of measurements at station 8729425.
