Levels are predicted heights relative to the NOAA station datum (MLLW), not beach water depth. A low predicted tide does not establish safe access, current speed, wave conditions, or tide-pool safety. Understand tide predictions.
COMPARE THE WEEK
Daily high-to-low tide differences
Compare the predicted spread for each local date
The largest predicted daily high-to-low difference is 7.7 ft on Wed, Oct 28: a high of 6.5 ft at 11:53 AM and a low of -1.2 ft at 7:21 PM. The smallest daily difference is 6.1 ft on Sat, Oct 31.
Calculated from the highest predicted high and lowest predicted low on each date in the NOAA CO-OPS seven-day tide data. Those events may not be consecutive. Differences do not indicate current speed, surf conditions, flooding risk, or safe access. Predictions are not observations and local conditions may differ. How to interpret this comparison.
LOCAL TIDE CONTEXT
Half Moon Bay low tides and Pillar Point Harbor predictions
The Half Moon Bay tide table is sourced from NOAA station 9414131 at Pillar Point Harbor. It gives predicted high and low tide times in local Pacific time, with heights referenced to the station's tidal datum; those heights are not a measurement of water depth on every beach.
If you are comparing possible dates for observing the shoreline or tide pools, find the predicted low events in the seven-day schedule and compare their times and heights. A lower predicted tide can help with timing, but it does not establish safe tide-pool access: breaking waves, swell, closures and the return of rising water require separate checks.
The seven-day high-to-low comparison summarizes how much the station's predicted levels vary on each date. It does not identify which particular tide pool or walking route is accessible.
