Tides in Queen Anne
Today's high and low tides
- ▼ Low tide 4:41 am 0.4 ft
- ▲ High tide 10:12 am 2.2 ft · coef. 77
- ▼ Low tide 4:40 pm 0.0 ft
- ▲ Next high tide 11:03 pm 3.0 ft · coef. 78
↑ Rising The tide is rising. 1 h 56 min to high tide at 11:03 pm.
Tide coefficient 77 for the 10:12 am high tide and 78 for the 11:03 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 3.0 ft between the highest high and the lowest low: a large range for this place. 70 is an average tide here; 90 and above means spring tides; below 45, neap tides. What is the tide coefficient?
2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on May 18 (3.0 ft) and the lowest, on November 26 (-0.1 ft).
Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.
Heights above mean lower low water (MLLW), the zero of US nautical charts. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. MLLW
Tide coefficient and range in October
The biggest tides of the month come from October 28 to 31 (coefficient 79, 3.0 ft range). The smallest, from October 20 to 22 (coefficient 59, 1.9 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Tides from the Hillsboro station (NOAA), 0.6 mi from Queen Anne. Times and heights are its predictions.

The sea at Queen Anne
Sea stateSea state: calm (rippled)
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common0.1 ft
- Significant0.2 ft
- Highest expectedHighest0.4 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 0.4 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 0.4 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Onshore wind. The coast faces southeast and the wind blows straight in from the sea: more surf and backwash at the shore, and bait and boats drift toward land.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Saturday 31: 1.0 ft with a period of 2 s, from the north (smooth).

The best window, 8:50 am to 11:30 am, combines slack water at high tide, small waves, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 4:00 pm to 5:10 pm, with slack water at low tide, small waves, light wind and weak current.
Slack water comes from the tide: in inlets, channels and between islands the water can keep running for an hour or two after. Ask the local dive shop.

The moon in Queen Anne
Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,429 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:39–3:39 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 2:10–4:10 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 10:03–11:03 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 7:15–8:15 pm Minor · moonrise · medium activity
According to solunar theory, fish feed more when the moon passes overhead or underfoot (major periods, about 2 h) and when it rises or sets (minor periods, 1 h). It works best around new and full moon.
