Cowes experiences two high waters close together on some days โ€” both are shown together in that one column. See the note on double high water for detail.

* Time and height interpolated between neighbouring real tide stations โ€” approximate, for casual planning only, not navigation. See how this is worked out.

Only 3 tides today, not 4 โ€” expected, not missing data. The real tidal cycle (about 12h25m between successive highs) is slightly longer than 24 hours, so roughly every couple of weeks a day's 4th tide lands just after midnight and counts toward the next day instead. See more detail.
