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
Cley uses the Blakeney Quay offset: +15 minutes on the Blakeney baseline for high and low water. Heights remain Chart Datum at Blakeney Bar. There is no extra Cley-only shift.
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 Cley Next the Sea times

Cley Next the Sea sits on the Glaven, east of Blakeney. Morston does not invent a third clock for Cley. It follows Blakeney Quay: about fifteen minutes after the Pit, the Bar, and Morston Quay.

That is the useful distinction. The BHA booklet is the harbour. Cley is not the harbour. If you read a Blakeney Harbour high water and stand at Cley, you are on the quay clock’s cousins — late by a quarter of an hour, and in much less water.

There is not a Pit here. The channel is narrower, the marshes take over, and a small neap does not give you harbour sailing. The window is still daylight around this later high water, for the people who do use the Glaven — not a promise of deep water under the village.

Common questions

Why does Cley match Blakeney Quay, not Blakeney Harbour?
Both sit up the Glaven from the Pit. The harbour clock is Bar and Pit. Quay and Cley share the +15 minute shift. Use the harbour page only if you mean the Pit.
Can you sail at Cley?
Some do, on the right tide, in the right boat. It is not Morston Quay. This page gives the clock and the daylight window. The water is yours to judge.
Are Cley and Blakeney village the same time?
On this site, yes — both on the Quay clock. They are not the same place. The channel between them is its own walk.
Is this for navigation?
No. The Glaven and the marshes are not a marked harbour. Planning only.
