TIDE TABLE
Or in graphic form
Tide Table
For the first site:
On the table, under the column "Height" you will see numbers, and a letter "H" or "L" next to it. The number represents the level of the water from the 0 sea level point. Thus, a negative number means below normal sea level and a positive number is above. The "H" means high tide and the "L" means low tide.
For the second site:
Under the graph you will adjust the date. The graph will display two day predictions. The beach is best when the tide is below +4 feet. Thus, try to head out when the slope is going down from +4 feet, and try to return as it moves toward +4 feet again.
Note:
If you are going out to the beach, it is best to go about two hours after high tide and stay until two hours before the next high tide. That way you will have the largest sand areas to play on and will see the most life in the tide pools. The lower the tide, the wider the sandy beach. In the picture above, the tide is about +2 (2 feet above sea level). There is about 12 hours between high tide. Negative tides are the absolute best hours to be on the beach for exploring tide pools.
