Description

An Old Atlas

Introduction to Tide and Current Tables is designed to clear up the confusion of reading tide and current tables. This way you will be able to plan on enjoying that sandy beach for a picnic, rather than that mad dask of a swim for your kayaks after the beach break.

This course will make tide and current tables a familiar entity for you.

Topics Include

  • Terminology of Tides
  • Basic Influences of Tides and Currents
  • Anatomy of Tide and Current Tables
  • Calculating Tides
  • Calculating Currents
  • Secondary Reference Ports
