About this station

NOAA builds the predictions for Point of Pines, Bayou Cumbest from the SOUTH PASS station: high tides about 1.25× the height, 109 min later; low tides about 1.25× the height, 69 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.
