Where Garibaldi is
Garibaldi sits at 45.5545° N, 123.9189° W on the Columbia River, at Garibaldi, OR. The station here is a live gauge in NOAA's National Water Level Observation Network, the reference network the rest of the coast's tide predictions are tied to. It has been in NOAA's records since 1866. The nearest weather station is Tillamook Bay South Jetty, OR (270), an offshore buoy reporting wind, waves and water temperature, 3.5 mi away.
The tide at Garibaldi
Garibaldi has a mixed tide: two highs and two lows a day, but of unequal size, so one low each day drains noticeably lower than the other. This month's predictions average 1.9 high tides a day here. The mean range from lower low to higher high is 8.3 ft, and 6.2 ft between the average high and the average low, a large tide. On an average day the higher high tops the lower high by 0.7 ft and the lower low sits 1.4 ft below the other low. For the water around it: The ocean tide runs far up the Columbia, mixed semidiurnal at about 8 ft near the mouth and shrinking to 2 ft or less at Vancouver, where spring runoff moves the river as much as the moon does.
About this station
- High tide reaches Garibaldi about 8.6 hours after the moon passes overhead. That lag is local, which is why high water does not line up with the moon.
- Highest water on record: 12.1 ft on Jan 4, 2022.
- Lowest on record: -3.5 ft on Nov 26, 2007.
Datum and source
Heights on this page are feet above mean lower low water (MLLW), the zero NOAA's nautical charts use for soundings. A predicted 0.0 ft low is the average of the lower low each day; a minus tide is water below chart datum, and a 2 ft high means 2 ft more water than the chart shows. NOAA fixes MLLW at Garibaldi from the 1983-2001 National Tidal Datum Epoch; mean higher high water is 8.3 ft above it and mean sea level 4.5 ft. These datums are controlled from NOAA's Astoria, OR gauge. Source: NOAA CO-OPS station 9437540, a National Water Level Observation Network gauge, established 1866. The tide times and heights are NOAA's official harmonic predictions for this station; TidalMap republishes them daily and does not alter them. The observed line is the gauge's own six-minute water level feed.
