About These Tide Predictions
Tide times and heights on this page come directly from the NOAA Center for Operational Oceanographic Products and Services (CO-OPS), the same federal source used by the U.S. Coast Guard, harbormasters, and commercial mariners. The reference station is Gig Harbor, Henderson Bay (NOAA #9446491). Heights are reported in feet relative to MLLW (Mean Lower Low Water), the standard chart datum for U.S. tidal waters.
Predictions are computed from harmonic constants — the gravitational rhythms of the moon and sun — and are accurate years in advance. Storm surge, wind, and atmospheric pressure can shift actual water levels by a foot or more; always cross-reference local observations before committing to a tide-sensitive trip.
