Where White Point is
White Point sits at 27.8583° N, 97.4750° W on the Texas Gulf coast, at Corpus Christi, TX. The station here is a historical NOAA reference station: a gauge measured the tide at this spot from 2004 until 2010, and NOAA still publishes harmonic predictions from that record. There is no live reading here today. The closest gauge measuring live water level is Viola Turning Basin (NOAA 8775222), 2.9 mi away, and high and low water here run on average about 88 min later than there. The nearest weather station is Viola Turning Basin, a tide-station weather package reporting wind and water temperature, 2.9 mi away.
The tide at White Point
White Point has a diurnal tide: usually one high and one low a day, with the daily rhythm shifting about 50 minutes later each day and fading near the moon's equatorial crossing. This month's predictions average 1.2 high tides a day here. For the water around it: Texas tides are diurnal, usually one high and one low a day with a range near 1 to 2 ft, and a steady wind can hold the predicted tide off by a foot.
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 White Point from the 1983-2001 National Tidal Datum Epoch; mean higher high water is 0.7 ft above it and mean sea level 0.3 ft. These datums are controlled from NOAA's USS Lexington, Corpus Christi Bay, TX gauge. Source: NOAA CO-OPS station 8775188, established 2004, gauge removed 2010. The tide times and heights are NOAA's official harmonic predictions for this station; TidalMap republishes them daily and does not alter them.

TidalMapMonthly tide calendar
🌊 Biggest flood tides at White Point this month: Oct 1, Oct 2, Oct 3, Oct 12, Oct 13, Oct 14, Oct 15, Oct 16, Oct 28. These spring highs push water up into the grass and over the oyster rock; prime for poling into flooded marsh for tailing reds.
Best fishing times (solunar)
Major and minor solunar windows for White Point, peak feeding activity is around the moon overhead/underfoot (majors) and moonrise/moonset (minors). Score is the day's activity coefficient (0–100).
