Tide times at Blairgowrie Pier

Saturday 17 October 2026 · Australia/Melbourne

Heights and times on this page are a model estimate. The model can't see the tide lag inside Port Phillip, so high and low water run early (about three hours across most of the bay, less near the heads), and near the heads it overstates the range. Use the BoM tide tables for Victoria for this area.

Best Tide State to Fish Blairgowrie Pier

The pier is close to the 'extremely tidal' southern end of the bay, so current runs hard for much of the tide; slack water, which at this end of the bay lags the high and low times in the BoM tide tables, is the most fishable. Southerlies are offshore; a northerly puts chop onto the outside. Clear water after calm days is squid weather.
