Data Source
All tide and water level data is sourced from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Tides and Currents API, ensuring accurate and authoritative information. NOAA operates a network of over 300 harmonic (primary) tide stations across U.S. coastal waters, providing continuous monitoring of water levels. Thousands of subordinate stations provide data for additional locations.
