Myrtle Beach, South Carolina Tide & Time Clock | Carved Birch Coastal Wall Clock
How the Water Becomes Wood
One hand on this wall answers to the moon, not the hour.
- ChartThe recessed birch face carries the water's etched shoreline over a hand-stained sea.
- MovementA quartz mechanism turns the tide hand once every 12 hours and 25 minutes, the lunar tide cycle.
- Set onceAlign it at your local high tide, or at the full or new moon, and it tracks from there.
- NoteTide movements are offered for East Coast waters only; Gulf and West Coast tides run too irregular for a quartz mechanism.
A Myrtle Beach tide and time clock: a carved birch face with the Grand Strand's shoreline etched in, one movement keeping the hour and another tracking the tide.
Beach days on the Strand are tide math, how much sand at Cherry Grove, whether the pier fishermen are working the incoming, when the tidal pools show up for the kids, and this clock does the math continuously. The tide hand rotates once every 12 hours and 25 minutes on the lunar cycle, so one setting against local high water keeps it honest all season.
It suits a beach-house entry where towels, chairs, and departure times get negotiated.
The full sixty-mile Strand is carved in relief on the Myrtle Beach 3D chart.
