About the tides at Blue Hill Harbor

Blue Hill Harbor 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 Bar Harbor, Frenchman Bay. With a mean range of about 9.7 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 12.5 ft on August 4 and bottom out at −1.8 ft on January 23.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Bar Harbor, Frenchman Bay, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Center Harbor, 10 mi away. For tidal currents, see Jones Point, Bagaduce River.
