About the tides at Biltmore Shores

Biltmore Shores 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 mean range is small, about 1.4 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. The next spring tides peak on October 10, with a range of 1.8 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 1.3 ft.

Biltmore Shores is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Sandy Hook, Fort Hancock: highs come about 124 min and lows about 152 min later than there. The nearest other station is Bellmore, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 36 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Jones Inlet.

Predictions are based on Sandy Hook, Fort Hancock.
