Tide Table Darwin — 2026

📘 About Darwin Tide Forecast

Found at -12.47° S latitude and 130.85° E longitude, Darwin serves as a prominent coastal location in Australia. Its tidal pattern is semi-diurnal (two high and two low tides per day), with a mean tidal range of 4.2m and spring tides reaching up to 5.8m. The 3–5 metre advance and retreat per cycle creates extensive salt marshes and natural evaporation ponds sustaining complex coastal food webs. Mariners in semi-diurnal areas benefit from two high-water windows each day to cross shallow bars or enter marinas. Waters along this coast are influenced by events such as El Niño, which can temporarily raise mean sea level. Review the annual 2026 tide guide for Darwin, constructed with continuous high and low water forecasts measured in metres. In July, Darwin is in its winter season, a key period for water sports, fishing, diving, and coastal navigation. Predictive output is continuously benchmarked against time series recorded by regional coastal reference stations.
