About the tides at Cedar Island

Cedar Island 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 0.1 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. That is smaller than most North Carolina stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 0.2 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 0.1 ft, on October 9.

Predictions for Cedar Island come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. The nearest other station is Sea Level, 10 mi away, where high tide comes about 9 min later.
