east coast tides

[iascnushfish]

just wondering where abouts on the east coast the tide changes.
i know from dundalk to wicklow town is fairly similar and
then arklow is quite different. just wondering does it change north of arklow
and if so where :wink:

Hi

Easytide from the UK hodrographic office is free and excellent...

South Leinster features an amphidromic area, basically the tides sweeping up around the South Atlantic get cancelled out by the tides sweeping down from the Irish Sea and as a consequence the tides can be well very weird.
You can have four tides in a five hour match there, with the sea rising and droping back no more than a metre on occasion...

HTH...
