tide table

Ocean rhythm chart

A tide table is a chart showing predicted times and heights of high and low tides for a specific location.

Mariners, fishermen, and beachgoers consult tide tables to plan activities: Check the tide table before we go clamming.

Published in newspapers, almanacs, and apps, they're calculated from astronomical data and local geography.
