About the Tides at Punta Arenas
Punta Arenas 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 0.8 feet.
Over the next two weeks the biggest tides come on Wednesday, November 11, when the water moves about 1.0 foot. The lowest water is -0.1 ft on Thursday, November 12 at 1:45 AM, and the highest is 0.9 ft on Monday, November 9 at 9:48 AM. A minus tide like that uncovers the most beach, flats and tide pools.
NOAA predicts the tides here from years of measurements at station 9752998.
