About the tides at Burnt Coat Harbor

Burnt Coat 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. The range is large, about 9.0 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 11.7 ft on August 4, and the lowest is −1.7 ft on January 23.

Burnt Coat Harbor is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Bar Harbor, Frenchman Bay: highs come about 1 min earlier and lows about 6 min later than there. The nearest other station is Mackerel Cove, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 7 min later. For tidal currents, see Hat Island, SE of, Jericho Bay.

Predictions are based on Bar Harbor, Frenchman Bay.
