I live in Seattle and I have a couple of tide and current apps I use on my iPhone, but unfortunately they don't seem to have any Canadian coverage, and I had the same problem with other apps after a bit of searching on the app store. So I'm wondering if anyone can recommend any tide and current apps that do cover Canada, especially the BC coast.
The immediate motivation is that I'm looking to do some kayak camping around Hardwicke Island in Johnstone Strait in a month or so. It looks like for this trip Johnstone Strait Central is the best current station, and Yorke Island for tides, and I've found the info online, but I'd love an app that lets me pick stations from a map, for future use and for any places we pass on our trip.
Also, any recommendations for guidebooks and/or web sites covering that area? The BC Marine Trails site is a great resource for finding launch and camp sites, and I subscribed to that, but I'd also be interested in doing a bit more general paddling research for that area.
Thanks!
