About the tides at Barnegat Inlet

Barnegat Inlet has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. On a typical day the water moves about 2.2 ft between high and low. That is smaller than most New Jersey stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 2.5 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 3.1 ft, comes on October 11, and the smallest, 2.3 ft, on Saturday.

Predictions for Barnegat Inlet come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here from 1976 to 2013 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is High Bar, 0.9 mi away, where high tide comes about 1 h 11 m later. For tidal currents, see Barnegat Inlet.
