Times are for West Mersea, adjusted for BST. Heights in metres above chart datum; “over sill” is the approximate depth on the marina sill at high water. Strong winds and extreme atmospheric pressures can affect tide times — heights and times are therefore only a guide. Waiting buoys available in the “Leavings”.

Good to know
A strong north-westerly wind is liable to increase height; a strong south-westerly wind is liable to reduce height.
The mean rise in Tollesbury Fleet is about 15 feet.
On average a boat with a draft of 3ft can enter Tollesbury Marina just under 2 hours before HW and 1 hour after HW.
