About this station

NOAA builds the predictions for Hookton Slough from the HUMBOLDT BAY (North Spit) station: high tides about the same height, 6 min later; low tides about the same height, 15 min later.

Mixed semidiurnal tides — two unequal highs and two unequal lows a day — with ranges growing as you head north. Harbor entrances feel the swell as much as the tide.
