Definition of low-water mark

A low-water mark is a mark that indicates the lowest point to which water falls or recedes. It can refer to:

  1. The shoreline of a sea marking the edge of the water at the lowest point of the ordinary ebb tide.
  2. In a river, the point to which the water recedes at its lowest stage.

For example, if you go to the beach and see a line of seaweed or debris, that line is likely the low-water mark, indicating the lowest point the water reached during the last ebb tide.

Low-water marks are important for navigation and determining property rights along waterways.

It is the opposite of a high-water mark, which shows the highest point the water reaches during high tide or when the river is at its highest level. A low-water mark can also refer to a transparent design or symbol on a document that shows it is genuine.
