About the tides at Ape Hole Creek

Ape Hole Creek has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The average range is about 2.2 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is larger than most Maryland stations on this site. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 3.0 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 2.3 ft.

Ape Hole Creek is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Crisfield, 2 mi away. For tidal currents, see Long Point, 2.0 n.mi. northeast of.
