Tide Table Punta Arenas — 2026

📘 About Punta Arenas Tide Forecast

Found at -53.16° S latitude and 70.92° W longitude, Punta Arenas serves as a prominent coastal location in Chile. Its tidal pattern is mixed semi-diurnal (unequal tidal heights across the day), with a mean tidal range of 1.4m and spring tides reaching up to 1.5m (values estimated from nearest harmonic station). The small tidal range makes anchoring small fishing boats straightforward, as the same spot remains accessible throughout the day. Mixed tides blend characteristics of diurnal and semi-diurnal patterns — the morning tide may differ greatly from the afternoon tide in height and current. Data from this station feeds into the global sea-level monitoring network, contributing to long-term change research.
