Where Hunters Point is
Hunters Point sits at 37.7300° N, 122.3570° W on San Francisco Bay, at San Francisco, CA. The station here is a historical NOAA reference station: a gauge measured the tide at this spot from 1974 until 1981, and NOAA still publishes harmonic predictions from that record. There is no live reading here today. The closest gauge measuring live water level is Alameda (NOAA 9414750), 4.2 mi away, and the tide here runs on nearly the same clock. The nearest weather station is Alameda, CA, a shore station reporting wind and, at most sites, water temperature, 4.3 mi away.
The tide at Hunters Point
Hunters Point 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 6.8 ft, and 5.0 ft between the average high and the average low, a large tide. On an average day the higher high tops the lower high by 0.6 ft and the lower low sits 1.1 ft below the other low. For the water around it: Bay tides are mixed semidiurnal, two unequal highs a day with a range near 6 ft at the Golden Gate that shifts in time as it moves into the bay and up the rivers.
About this station
- High tide reaches Hunters Point about 8.0 hours after the moon passes overhead. That lag is local, which is why high water does not line up with the moon.
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 Hunters Point from the 1983-2001 National Tidal Datum Epoch; mean higher high water is 6.8 ft above it and mean sea level 3.6 ft. These datums are controlled from NOAA's Alameda, CA gauge. Source: NOAA CO-OPS station 9414358, established 1974, gauge removed 1981. The tide times and heights are NOAA's official harmonic predictions for this station; TidalMap republishes them daily and does not alter them.
