About the tides at Beach Haven Coast Guard Station

Beach Haven Coast Guard Station has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. The pattern follows the reference station at Sandy Hook, Fort Hancock. The average range is about 2.1 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. 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. The next spring tides peak on October 10, with a range of 2.8 ft. Neap tides follow on Monday, when the range shrinks to 1.9 ft.

Beach Haven Coast Guard Station is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Sandy Hook, Fort Hancock: highs come about 78 min and lows about 83 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here from 1976 to 1977 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Little Sheepshead Creek, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 43 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Manahawkin Drawbridge.

Predictions are based on Sandy Hook, Fort Hancock.
