Does anyone know of a program for tide times?

Hi,

Is the a program where you can put in destinations and get tide times for high and low tides? This would be a fab and really usefull application!

You can buy clocks and watches for tide times so I am thinking that someone must have made a ppc program for this by now.

I don't know of one, but I guess it would be useful if you wanted to drag a BMW motorbike of a Dorset beach! :)

Freeware written for Pocket PC 2003 but runs on WM5 . Need to read install instructions carefully but works well and seems accurate enough.

Cheers, this seems like quite a good program. Its what I was looking for, although it could do with a few more places.

cheers for your post.

Both Bellfield and Neptune offer PDA versions of their tide tables software with alot of detail and functionality.

see www.tideplotter.co.uk this is £10.95 for a 1 year version.

or www.neptune-navigation.com not sure how much the various versions are.

These are designed for sailors so not sure there will be anything with much more detail. Beware though that due to differences in the way they calculate tides there can be some small differences in their calcualated heights (up to 10cm at times)
