About this station

NOAA builds the predictions for Waimea Bay from the NAWILIWILI station: high tides about 0.86× the height, 7 min later; low tides about 0.91× the height, 18 min later.

Trade-wind shores with small mixed tides — a foot or two in Hawaii, a few feet in the Caribbean — where swell and season matter more than range.
