Every year I find the Cherbourg tide tables on the Adlard Coles/ Bloomsbury website but always with difficulty
This year I just cannot find them, has anyone found a URL or is it a bit early?

Blast from the past prompted by your request!

Ages since I sailed back and forth across the channel. My fave tide stream atlas for this was the Reeve- Fawkes one that used HW Cerbourg as the datum.

Does anyone else still use this?

I use Reeve-Fawkes all the time. I have also looked around but cannot find the 2022 tables. I also asked the developers of Absolute Tides if they might include Cherbourg but no joy there which is a shame.

Are we allowed to use them now we have left for a parallel universe?

Dover Marina have yet to update their tide tables for 2022.

Thanks all. I have just checked my old 2021 emails and I had to prompt them to put them up last year, which they did in late January.
I might just give them another reminder email for this year.

Yep still using it. Pages are getting a bit thin in places from rubbing out the date and time.

Me too excellent thing, I now use post it notes to save the rubbing out.



I just came across this site:

World Tides 2022 | TideTime.org

Not seen it before. You can click on Dover etc (not N France for some reason) and then get to monthly pages like this:

Dover Tides | January 2022 30 day calendar | TideTime.org

It's then possible to load them, a month at a time, into a WP like Libre Office as:- Paste Special " HTML without comment" Which comes out in the correct format
Only from Jan to June though.................Might be easier to buy a tide table but it hurts ?

If you use softwares like "wxtide32", or even better "marees dans le monde" ( French language, often uses a more complete set of harmonics than Wxtide) you can make, format and print text-only tide tables for almost any port.
Comparing them with SHOM official data, the biggest errors are around +-10/20cm and +-20/30min, but usually correct to 5/10min.
This is how it appears with Marees dans le monde

This is from Wxtide, I made an image as I could not upload a txt file, you can have the whole year in text then format as you prefer, depending on one's eyesight a whole year might be printed in only one double sided A4 sheet :)

You may check them against SHOM official data here (check time zone, the above are UTC)

I've given it a try on my pc, a little hard work setting it up, not being a french speaker, but got there!
First pass, it seems ok, thanks Roberto.
He has also incorporated some modification in harmonics derived from a satellite sea surface altimetry study, I forgot the details should you wish I might enquire.
Anyway, from the right column one may choose which set to use, Wxtde or others.
