About this station

NOAA builds the predictions for Ship Harbor, Fidalgo Island from the PORT TOWNSEND station: high tides about 0.93× the height, 18 min later; low tides about the same height, 29 min later.

Puget Sound and the Columbia estuary amplify mixed tides far inland — ranges past 10 ft in the South Sound — with river flow stacked on top.
