Hello,

 I have a tide/current predictor site I check. I was surprised to see (if I read it correctly) a one hour difference in tomorrows high tide at Deep Cove and Point Atkinson. What would be the most accurate tide predictor for the Garry point area? There isn't a reading for Garry Point. Where would the nearest site that  there may be a  prediction for? Point Atkinson?  I hope I made sense. Thank you.

here's one for Tsawwassen:  http://www.dairiki.org/tides/daily.php/tsw

thats pretty close to Garry Point

I use this link:

http://www.waterlevels.gc.ca/cgi-bin/tide-shc.cgi?queryType=showZone&language=english&region=1&zone=10

There is Tsawwassen and Sandheads - you'll still have to make an educated guess for the Garry Point area.  After a few attempts - you should be able to calculate an approximate time difference.

Here's a good source for tides RIGHT AT GERRY PK..OR Steveston Harbour area:
www.tides.gc.ca
That address should bring out a map of Canada ..just click on teh Vancouver area...bring the map to where ya can click on SANDHEADS then look at webpage & at SITES scoll till ya see STEVESTON ...click on that..& ya should get a TIMETABLE for low mid & high tides...plus ya can get a 7 day look ahead.
Also on SITES ya can get other tide levels at various points along the mighty Fraser R.  
ADDED:
DavidD posted as I was typing this up...he gives the same INFO but DavidD iliketofish & fishyfish...from DavidD's link yes from Sandheads via SITES ya can get right to the Steveston location as mentioned!!!!!!

I noticed that Steveston was in the droplist afterwards and you (AB) posted before I could correct myself. 

No replies for hours - and then BAM... 3 in less than 15min.

Just need to be patient on this site!

tides.gc.ca has always been reliable for me, although I am surpised to hear of a full hour difference between the two locations
