Sailing window

18:45 – 20:24

Sunset 19:48 · Twilight 20:24

Sunset is when the sun dips below the horizon. Twilight is a little later — when the sun is 6° below the horizon and usable light for navigating the harbour effectively stops. When the tide is still in after sunset, the sailing window runs until twilight.

It’s a spring tide (HW 5.53 m) — stronger flood and ebb than on a neap. Forecasts suggest light rain possible during the high tide.

How these tide times are calculated

Data source
WorldTides harmonic predictions for the North Sea.
Reference station
Immingham (53.6183°N, 0.1817°W).
Prediction point
Morston Quay, Blakeney Harbour — the same clock as Blakeney, with no extra creek offset.
Datum
Chart Datum (CD) at Blakeney Bar. Heights are 1.4 m below the raw Immingham feed so a typical high water reads around 5 m.
Timezone
Europe/London — BST in summer, GMT in winter.
This harbour
Blakeney Harbour is the baseline. High water is snapped to the BHA published table (Hull Albert Dock + 28 min). Low waters come from the shifted WorldTides feed — the BHA prints high water only. Heights are Chart Datum at Blakeney Bar.
Local knowledge adjustment
Immingham times are shifted so they match the harbour clock used on this coast. Real tides still vary with wind and pressure.

About these Blakeney Harbour times

This is the Blakeney Harbour Association clock: high water for the Pit and for Blakeney Bar. It is the time in the garage booklet. Morston Quay uses this same clock — you walk from Morston into this water.

Blakeney Bar is the seaward entrance. The Pit is the moorings inside. They share this clock. Blakeney Quay does not. The quay at the village sits further up the channel and comes about fifteen minutes later. If you keep a boat on the quay pontoon, use the Blakeney Quay page.

Admiralty EasyTide’s UKHO Blakeney Bar often runs earlier than local habit. This page follows the BHA table. Real tides still vary with a northerly on the Bar or a hard ebb in the channel.

Common questions

What is the difference between Blakeney Bar, the Pit, and Blakeney Quay?
Bar and Pit use this harbour clock. Morston Quay does too. Blakeney Quay is up the Glaven and is about 15 minutes later. Do not take a booklet high water and walk it unchanged to the village quay.
Why don’t these times match EasyTide?
Local convention follows the Blakeney Harbour Association table, also printed at Blakeney Garage. UKHO Blakeney Bar on EasyTide is often earlier. This page is the harbour clock people here actually use.
Is the sailing window for the Pit or the Bar?
It is a harbour-sailing window around this clock — usable light, about ±2 hours around high water. The Bar still needs your own eye: wind against ebb, and less water on a small neap in the Pit.
Is this for navigation?
No. Planning only. The Bar and the channel change with wind and pressure. There is no guarantee of accuracy.
