About the tides at Bivalve
Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Maurice River, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. With a mean range of about 5.7 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. That is larger than most New Jersey stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 6.3 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 6.6 ft, comes on Saturday, and the smallest, 4.3 ft, on October 18. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 7.3 ft on August 2 and bottom out at −1.0 ft on January 24.
Predictions for Bivalve 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 2017 to 2024 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is East Point, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 8 min later. For tidal currents, see Maurice River entrance.
