About tides at Helgoland
Helgoland sits about 70 km off the German North Sea coast, the only deepwater island in the German Bight. The tide pattern is semidiurnal, two highs and two lows about twelve and a half hours apart. Mean range is around 2.4 metres at the harbour, climbing close to 3.0 metres on spring tides. The island's low tides expose the famous Lummenfelsen rocks and the intertidal zone around the Düne — the smaller sandy island a short ferry ride east of the main rock. For anyone hiking the cliff path, paddling the harbour, or birdwatching the gannet colony, the tide changes both the access and the look of the place. Tide on Helgoland leads the Wadden Sea coast slightly — the flood reaches the open island first, then propagates inshore to Cuxhaven and Husum. Predictions on this page come from Open-Meteo Marine, a global ocean grid model. That's gridded data, not a harmonic gauge — accurate to roughly ±15–30 minutes and ±15 cm, less reliable in narrow estuaries. For the official German tide gauge, the BSH Pegel Helgoland is the authoritative source.
