About this station
NOAA builds the predictions for Independence Island from the EAST POINT, GRAND ISLE station: high tides about 0.85× the height, 149 min later; low tides about 0.85× the height, 119 min later.
The northern Gulf runs small, mostly diurnal tides — often just one high and one low a day — where wind and river flow routinely outvote the moon.
