About the tides at Barbour Island

Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.8 ft. With a mean range of about 7.1 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 8.7 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 7.5 ft, on Sunday.

Barbour Island is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is South Newport River (Daymark 135), 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 17 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Cedar Hammock, south of.
