Port Fourchon tides
Predicted from Port Fourchon, NOAA station 8762075, 0 miles away. In the marsh the tide does more than raise and lower the water. A falling tide pulls bait out of the ponds and through the cuts, and it decides how much water sits under a hull on the way back in. The range is small; what matters is which way it is running. Heights in feet above MLLW. Also covers Fourchon Beach, Belle Pass and Timbalier Island.

About Port Fourchon
Primarily known as a massive offshore energy hub, this area also provides critical coastal access to Fourchon Beach, Belle Pass, and the barrier sands of Timbalier Island. Typical recreational activities include surf fishing directly from the beach, inshore charter fishing for redfish, bird watching along the coast, and boating in the expansive Barataria Bay marshes. Knowing the tides is vital for surf casters and beach drivers; a low tide provides a wider, safer driving lane along the often-narrow sands of Fourchon Beach and exposes sandbars where anglers can safely wade out to cast for black drum and redfish.
