About the tides at Atlantic Beach Bridge

Atlantic Beach Bridge has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The pattern follows the reference station at Cape Hatteras Fishing Pier. On a typical day the water moves about 2.3 ft between high and low. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 3.5 ft on November 25 and bottom out at −0.8 ft on January 23.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Cape Hatteras Fishing Pier, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Morehead City Harbor, 1 mi away, where high tide comes about 15 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Morehead City, S of.

Predictions are based on Cape Hatteras Fishing Pier.
