About this station

NOAA builds the predictions for Oakland Airport from the SAN FRANCISCO (Golden Gate) station: high tides about 1.15× the height, 40 min later; low tides about 0.96× the height, 45 min later.

Mixed semidiurnal tides — two unequal highs and two unequal lows a day — with ranges growing as you head north. Harbor entrances feel the swell as much as the tide.
