About the Tides at Barron Point
Barron Point 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 14.7 feet.
Over the next two weeks the biggest tides come on Wednesday, November 11, when the water moves about 17.1 feet. The lowest water is -1.8 ft on Wednesday, November 11 at 12:18 AM, and the highest is 15.3 ft on Wednesday, November 11 at 7:51 AM. A minus tide like that uncovers the most beach, flats and tide pools.
NOAA works out the times here from its reference station at Seattle (Madison St.), Elliott Bay, adjusted for this location.
