# Marine Conditions – Tide Predictions

> Marine Conditions – Tide Predictions is a paid API for AI agents from marine-conditions.x402tookit.com, paid per call via x402, $0.03/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-29).

Returns upcoming high and low tide predictions for a NOAA CO-OPS tide station, including UTC and local times, heights in feet above MLLW, tidal range, and next tide.

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability marine-conditions-tide-predictions-f4a52927
```

Example prompt: What are the high and low tides at NOAA station 8518750 (The Battery, NY) for the next 2 days — give me the local times and heights?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need structured, multi-day tide prediction tables (highs and lows with times and heights) for a specific NOAA CO-OPS tide station. It is ideal when you already know the 7-digit station ID or have resolved it via the nearby-stations endpoint. Prefer this over generic weather APIs when tidal precision (MLLW datum, local vs UTC times, tidal range) is required for navigation, event planning, or marine safety.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-existent station ID returns an error or null results
- Station does not support tide predictions (e.g. water-level-only stations)
- NOAA CO-OPS upstream service unavailable causing degraded or empty response
- Days parameter out of range (must be 1–7) may return an error
- Network timeout from upstream NOAA data source

## How this service works

Upcoming high and low tides at a NOAA tide station: UTC and local times, heights in feet above MLLW, next tide and tidal range.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with the station ID, name, state, time zone, datum (MLLW), and an array of upcoming tide events each containing type (High/Low), UTC time, local time, and height in feet. Also includes tidal range, next tide summary, data source URL, degraded-data flag, and any disclaimer or reasons for data quality issues.
