About the tides at Cherry Island

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 mean range is small, about 1.2 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 2.0 ft. Neap tides follow on Monday, when the range shrinks to 0.9 ft.

Cherry Island is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Woolford, 4 mi away. For tidal currents, see Ragged Point, 1.5 miles east of.
