Where these times come from. There is no official tide station at Greystones.
These are the Marine Institute's predictions for Bray, the nearest
official station, 9 km away. Times at Greystones will differ by a few minutes. We do not invent a local
correction, because a made up offset is worse than a stated approximation.

Greystones tide questions
- What time is high tide at Greystones today?
- Today's high water times are shown at the top of this page, taken from the Bray station 9 km away. There are two high waters roughly every 24 hours and 50 minutes, and local times at Greystones differ from the station by a few minutes.
- Is there an official tide station at Greystones?
- No. The Marine Institute does not predict for Greystones directly. The nearest official station is Bray, 9 km away, and that is what these times come from. We do not apply an invented local correction.
- What is the best tide for swimming at Greystones?
- This is a slip, steps or pier entry, so depth arrives with the tide. The usable window is roughly two hours either side of high water.
- Which way does Greystones face?
- Greystones faces E, so a wind from that direction is onshore and a wind from the opposite side is offshore.
