About tides at Galveston

Galveston, TX sits in the Gulf Coast region. Its tide predictions come from the Galveston Bay Entrance, North Jetty station (NOAA 8771341), a harmonic NOAA reference station, so predictions come straight from its own published constituents. This spot is an inlet station, where tides run strong and boaters and anglers time their day around the current as much as the height. Tides here swing between about -0.3 ft and 2.1 ft (MLLW) over the next 30 days. The chart above is live, and the 30-day tide forecast below lists every high and low with heights, plus sunrise, sunset, and the moon — everything you need to time a beach day, a surf session, or a low-tide walk.
