About this station

NOAA builds the predictions for South Island Plantation (C.G. Station) from the CHARLESTON (Customhouse Wharf) station: high tides about 0.74× the height, 35 min later; low tides about 0.84× the height, 36 min later.

Georgia and the Carolinas run the biggest ranges on the Southeast coast — 7 to 10 ft through marsh creeks and barrier-island inlets that rearrange themselves with every storm.
