When are the next spring tides on Newfoundland?

From October 26 to 28, after the new or full moon, with the moon near perigee, so they will be bigger than usual. At the Holyrood Bay station the coefficient will reach 105.

How many tides a day are there on Newfoundland?

The tide is mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights. Each high tide comes about 50 minutes later than the day before.

Why do some places on Newfoundland have no tide times?

64 of the 532 places have no tide station close enough, or in the same body of water, to give their times: the nearest one, Anchor Point, is 59 mi away on average. And we can't rely on the global tide model on this coast, so for now we don't show their tide. The sun, moon and spring tides on their pages are accurate.

What time are sunrise and sunset today on Newfoundland?

In the middle of the area, the sun rises at 7:53 am and sets at 6:00 pm: 10 h 7 min of daylight. In Stopperside it rises 28 minutes earlier than in Cape Anguille.
