About this station
NOAA builds the predictions for Alligator Point, West Bay from the GALVESTON, Galveston Channel station: high tides about 0.64× the height, 159 min later; low tides about 0.64× the height, 153 min later.
Texas tides are small and mostly diurnal, and the bays answer wind and season more than the moon. A strong norther can drain a flat in an afternoon.
