About the tides at Bristol

This is a mixed-tide station. Some days bring a deep low and a shallow low, and a few days have only one of each. The pattern follows the reference station at Newport, Narragansett Bay. The average range is about 3.8 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. The next spring tides peak on November 23, with a range of 5.6 ft. Neap tides follow on Monday, when the range shrinks to 2.5 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 5.7 ft on September 2, and the lowest is −0.9 ft on January 23.

Bristol is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Newport, Narragansett Bay: highs come about 13 min and lows about 0 min later than there. The nearest other station is Bristol Highlands, 2 mi away. For tidal currents, see Hog Island, northwest of.

Predictions are based on Newport, Narragansett Bay.
