Shape, not depth. This traces the tide’s rise and fall — not a ruler on the water. Heights are the size of the tide, not the depth of the water here: metres above chart datum at our Immingham reference, carried to this port by a time offset with no height ratio. The shaded band around each high water is the published ±30-minute accuracy window, not a claimed minute.

High and low tide times for Blakeney over the next seven days, split into early and late, in local time. High waters are accurate to ±30 minutes and low waters to ±60 minutes. Heights are metres above chart datum at the Immingham reference, not the depth of water here.

Two high waters most days, roughly twelve hours apart. Each high water is accurate to ±30 min. Low water is worked out from the high waters either side of it, so it is a wider estimate — ±60 min — and is shown smaller for that reason. “Spring” tides run higher and faster than “neap”.

Heights are the size of the tide, not the depth of the water here. They are metres above chart datum at Immingham, our reference port — we carry a timing offset to Blakeney but no height ratio, so a big number does not mean a deep creek.

Blakeney at high tide, the harbour a broad sheet of water reaching the quay, with the village roofs and moored boats along the far side under a blue sky.

High tide

Blakeney at low water, small boats and dinghies standing on drying mud beside old timber staging, with a thin curve of remaining water threading away through the saltmarsh.

Low tide

Blakeney harbour full, and the same harbour drained back to its creek. The boats moored along the Glaven float only near the top of the tide. Photographs of Blakeney: Blakeney at high tide by Trevor Wright · Low tide at Blakeney by Steve Fareham · CC BY-SA 2.0

What the tide controls here

At Blakeney, the tide controls whether you can get in or out of the harbour at all, and whether the quay is above water.

Harbour access
The Blakeney Harbour Association are blunt about it: do not enter or leave the harbour beyond two hours either side of high water. Blakeney Harbour Association →
Reaching the village
Shoal-draft boats can reach Blakeney about an hour either side of high water on springs, with little or no access on neaps. Blakeney Harbour Association →
Moorings
Every mooring in Blakeney Harbour dries out. Blakeney Harbour Association →
The quay
On a high spring tide the quayside is often over-topped. Blakeney Parish Council →
Flood warnings
The Environment Agency issues tidal flood warnings for this stretch of coast. Check live warnings →

15% of people in the UK and Ireland have been cut off — or nearly cut off — by the tide in their lifetime (RNLI/Bangor University, April 2025). A calendar you don’t have to remember to check is one less thing to get wrong.

Dangers here

Specific to this location. The sea is dangerous everywhere on this coast — this is what the tide does here.

The quay over-tops and the car parks flood

Blakeney Parish Council note that the quay is tidal and that on a high spring tide the quayside is often over-topped. The National Trust warn that the quayside car parks are liable to flooding.

How this time is worked out

Every time on this page is high water at Immingham, shifted by 70 minutes for Blakeney, and published as a ±30 minute window.

Not independently checked. Never checked against a tide gauge — there is no gauge here.

How we work out every time on this site

This is a prediction of the astronomical tide. It cannot know what the weather is doing, and wind, pressure and surge all move real water. It is one input to a decision you make — never the decision itself.
