About this station

NOAA builds the predictions for Cedar Island, North Santee Bay from the CHARLESTON (Customhouse Wharf) station: high tides about 0.80× the height, 3 min earlier; low tides about 0.95× the height, 17 min later.

Georgia and the Carolinas run the biggest ranges on the Southeast coast — 7 to 10 ft through marsh creeks and barrier-island inlets that rearrange themselves with every storm.
