About this station

NOAA builds the predictions for Elliott Cut entrance from the CHARLESTON (Customhouse Wharf) station: high tides about the same height, 48 min later; low tides about 1.16× the height, 52 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.
