About the tides at Bay Shore

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Bayshore, Long Island, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The pattern follows the reference station at Sandy Hook. The mean range is small, about 1.0 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. That is smaller than most New York stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 1.2 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 25, with a range of 1.3 ft. Neap tides follow on Monday, when the range shrinks to 0.3 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 1.4 ft on August 2, and the lowest is −0.5 ft on January 23.

Bay Shore is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Sandy Hook: highs come about 135 min and lows about 147 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here from 1972 to 1980 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Babylon, 4 mi away. For tidal currents, see Fire I. Inlet, 0.5 mi. S of Oak Beach.

Predictions are based on Sandy Hook.
