About the tides at Cliffs Wharf

Cliffs Wharf has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The mean range is small, about 1.4 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 2.3 ft. Neap tides follow on Friday, when the range shrinks to 1.2 ft.

Cliffs Wharf is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Cliffs Point, 0.3 mi away. For tidal currents, see Deep Point.
