Tide Table Cardwell — 2026

📘 About Cardwell Tide Forecast

Situated along the coastline of Australia (-18.25° S, 146.03° E), Cardwell lies in the southern hemisphere. Its tidal pattern is semi-diurnal (two high and two low tides per day), with a mean tidal range of 2m and spring tides reaching up to 2.3m. The 1.5–3 metre tidal range significantly affects navigation for small vessels, which should consult the tide table before crossing shallow bars. The semi-diurnal cycle flushes coves frequently, shortening water residence time and maintaining high oxygenation levels. Waters along this coast are influenced by events such as El Niño, which can temporarily raise mean sea level. Review the annual 2026 tide guide for Cardwell, constructed with continuous high and low water forecasts measured in metres. In September, Cardwell is in its spring season, a key period for water sports, fishing, diving, and coastal navigation. Reported times and heights derive from fundamental harmonic component analysis (M2, S2, K1, O1) applied to these coordinates.
