This page uses NOAA CO-OPS station 9415020 at Point Reyes, California, as its tide-table reference.

Question 2

What does the Point Reyes tide table show?

Accepted Answer

It shows predicted high and low times and heights for station 9415020 for the selected date, time zone, and vertical datum.

Question 3

Does NOAA station 9415020 publish observed-station data?

Accepted Answer

NOAA metadata currently identifies 9415020 as an observed tidal station. Availability can change, so check the current NOAA station page rather than relying on a frozen value here.

Question 4

Is high or low tide the same as slack current at Point Reyes?

Not necessarily. Tide height and tidal current are different products, and slack-current timing can differ from a predicted high or low.

Accepted Answer

No. Use station 9415020 as the named reference, then verify the appropriate prediction, forecast, access information, and conditions for the exact water you will visit.
