"Absolute Tides" free app but data 99p
Excellent, full data table for the year, slide over month to month, tap to date and a nice graphic with slider to give current height of tide and as you move it by touch it will show height at any given time.
But this is only for chosen home port.

Yet another vote for TidesPlan12 from Imray/Tucabo. I did pay for the upgrade to be able to get predictions more that 7 days ahead too.

You won't find TidesPlan 12 in a search in App Store it is actually named Marine Tides Planner

Thanks folks, this is the one I've plumped for. With the upgrade - seven days only doesn't cut my mustard.
Looking through the app store at all the comments made by purchasers of the various tide apps available, reveals a wide variation of praise. A good many of the poor comments say the predicted times are wrong - a bit worrying, but we don't know if the user hadn't fully grasped the operation, or if the app is indeed wrong. Also I don't know the margin of error. Ten minutes is no great shakes but an hour is bad. The above said - it could be a BST issue. We've all forgotten to correct UT times in the summer haven't we. I know it's not just me.
