Tide Clocks are clocks that tell the tide – they show you how many hours there are until low tide or high tide. They have a quartz movement that is set to the time it takes the moon to rotate around the earth. The moon is the major cause of the tides. The lunar day, the time it takes for the moon to reappear at the same place in the sky, is 24 hours and 50 minutes.

Most locations in Australia have two distinct high tides and two low tides each day (Except southern Western Australia). Our tide clocks rotate once every 12 hours and 25 minutes, twice each lunar day. Once set correctly, the Tide Clock will always stay in exact step with the moon. Simply set the hand to the full time position at exactly high tide for your chosen location on a full or new moon and you won’t need that tide table anymore.

Tide clocks are the perfect gift for fishermen, mariners, surfers, seaside walkers, and anyone who enjoys the sea.

Tide clocks are the perfect addition to any home, boat or holiday home. Choose from a fantastic range of clock faces.
