2026 King Tides in the Charleston Area

King Tide is a commonly used term describing high tides that are higher than normal. They usually occur during a full or new moon or during specific seasons throughout the year. Charleston’s average high tide range is about 5.5 ft., but during a King Tide event, it can reach 7 ft. or higher. 

King Tides can cause flooding in low-lying areas, resulting in road closures on Seabrook Island, as well as the Johns Island and Charleston areas. This is particularly true when a king tide coincides with significant rain and/or wind.

The dates of predicted King Tides for 2026:

  • April 18
  • May 15-18
  • June 14-16
  • July 13-14
  • August 11-12
  • September 29-30
  • October 10-11
  • October 26-29
  • November 24-27
