About the tides at Cat Point

Cat Point has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. Water here rises and falls only about 1.4 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 2.0 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.3 ft, comes on Tuesday, and the smallest, 1.2 ft, on October 19. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 2.7 ft on August 31 and bottom out at −1.2 ft on January 20.

Predictions for Cat Point 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 2021 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is White Beach, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 5 h 13 m later.
