Burton Stather commands the Humber estuary with mudflats and salt marshes that shift with every tide cycle. The village itself sits back from the water, but walkers and birdwatchers flock here for the raw, working landscape where industry and nature coexist. Spring tides reveal dramatic mud banks and channels that make this stretch of the Lincolnshire coast genuinely wild. Expect grey skies, wading birds, and the honest rhythm of an estuary that's been shaped by shipping and tidal forces for centuries. The nearby Humber Bridge offers dramatic vistas, but Burton Stather keeps its quieter, muddier charm.

Burton Stather commands the Humber estuary with mudflats and salt marshes that shift with every tide cycle. The village itself sits back from the water, but walkers and birdwatchers flock here for the raw, working landscape where industry and nature coexist. Spring tides reveal dramatic mud banks and channels that make this stretch of the Lincolnshire coast genuinely wild. Expect grey skies, wading birds, and the honest rhythm of an estuary that's been shaped by shipping and tidal forces for centuries. The nearby Humber Bridge offers dramatic vistas, but Burton Stather keeps its quieter, muddier charm.. The tide predictions shown above cover 7 days of high and low tide times, updated daily using professional-grade harmonic tidal analysis. Tide heights are displayed in metres above Chart Datum (CD), the standard reference level used in marine navigation charts.
Tidal patterns at Burton Stather are driven by the gravitational forces of the Moon and Sun acting on the local ocean. The timing and height of each tide depends on the shape of the local coastline, water depth, and the position of celestial bodies relative to Earth. Like all coastal locations, Burton Stather experiences a full tidal cycle approximately every 24 hours and 50 minutes.
Spring tides — which occur at new moon and full moon — produce the largest tidal ranges at Burton Stather, with higher high tides and lower low tides than average. Neap tides, at the quarter moons, produce the smallest ranges. This fortnightly cycle is an important consideration for anyone planning coastal activities in the area.
Burton Stather is located in Lincolnshire, East Coast.
Fish are most active around tide changes, particularly the two hours either side of high and low water. Anglers targeting shore fish near Burton Stather use tide predictions to plan sessions when water movement is at its most productive.
Navigating in and out of harbours and estuaries near Burton Stather safely requires knowing the state of the tide. Sailors rely on these predictions to avoid running aground in shallow water and to time passage through tidal channels.
Many surf breaks and water sports venues near Burton Stather are tide-dependent. Certain breaks work only on a specific tide height, while kayaking and paddleboarding routes can be heavily affected by tidal currents and water depth.
Tidal beaches, coastal paths, and rock pools near Burton Stather are accessible only at certain tide states. Checking tide times before visiting ensures you don't get cut off by a rising tide, and helps you find the best time to explore exposed sand and rocky shores.
The tide chart above plots predicted water height (in metres) against time for Burton Stather. The curved line rises to peaks (high tide) and falls to troughs (low tide). The height shown is measured above Chart Datum — a reference level set near the lowest predicted astronomical tide level for the area.
All times shown are in the local timezone for Burton Stather (Europe/London). Remember that tide times advance by roughly 50 minutes each day, so always check the chart for your specific visit date.
Most coastal locations, including Burton Stather, experience two high tides and two low tides every 24 hours and 50 minutes — this is called a semidiurnal tidal pattern. Some regions experience one tide per day (diurnal), or a mixed pattern. The exact cycle for Burton Stather is shown in the chart above.
Astronomical tide predictions for Burton Stather are typically accurate to within 15–30 minutes and a few centimetres. However, actual water levels can vary due to weather — strong onshore winds raise sea levels, while offshore winds lower them. Storm surges and low atmospheric pressure can add significant height. Always treat predictions as a guide and check local conditions before heading to the coast.
Chart Datum (CD) is the reference level from which all tide heights at Burton Stather are measured. It is set close to the Lowest Astronomical Tide (LAT) — meaning tide heights are almost always positive numbers. Chart Datum is also the reference used on nautical charts for water depth, so mariners can add the predicted tide height to the charted depth to calculate the actual depth of water at any given time.
Tides are caused by the Moon's orbit around the Earth, which takes approximately 24 hours and 50 minutes to complete one tidal cycle. This means high and low tides at Burton Stather occur about 50 minutes later each day. Over a month, this adds up to a complete shift through the clock. The height of tides also changes through the monthly cycle between spring and neap tides.
