Bainbridge Island Tides

On this page is the tide information for Eagle Harbor, Bainbridge Island, Puget Sound, Washington.

The time between a high tide and low tide is approximately 6 to 7 hours. There are usually two high tides and two low tides each day, with one of each being higher or lower, respectively, than the other.

The most extreme low tides happen in summer, and the most extreme high tides in the winter.

Tides are measured relative to the mean sea level and are caused by the gravitational pull of the sun and the moon. The extreme lowest tides of the year occur in summer, generally in mid-afternoon, and in winter mostly during the middle of the night.

Weather conditions, such as storms with high winds, can cause high tides to be higher than predicted.
