About the tides at Channel Marker Lt. 59

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.6 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The pattern follows the reference station at Cape Hatteras Fishing Pier. Water here rises and falls only about 1.9 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. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 3.0 ft on November 25 and bottom out at −0.8 ft on January 23.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Cape Hatteras Fishing Pier, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Lenoxville Point, 0.3 mi away, where high tide comes about 7 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Carrot Island.

Predictions are based on Cape Hatteras Fishing Pier.
