About the tides at Bangor

Bangor has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. The tide range here is very large, about 13.4 ft on average. Water can come in faster than you can walk across flats. Check the time before you go out. That is larger than most Maine stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 14.3 ft. The next spring tides peak on November 22, with a range of 13.9 ft. Neap tides follow on November 18, when the range shrinks to 9.7 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 16.0 ft on December 25, and the lowest is −1.6 ft on January 24.

This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. NOAA measured the tide here from 1970 to 2006 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Winterport, 11 mi away. For tidal currents, see Snub Point, Penobscot River.
