About the tides at Bristol Highlands
Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Narragensett Bay, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. On a typical day the water moves about 4.1 ft between high and low. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 4.5 ft. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 5.7 ft on September 2 and bottom out at −0.9 ft on January 23.
Predictions for Bristol Highlands 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 1977 to 2015 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Bristol, 2 mi away. For tidal currents, see Warren River entrance.
