About the tides at Coney Island

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Coney Island, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The pattern follows the reference station at Sandy Hook. On a typical day the water moves about 4.6 ft between high and low. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 6.4 ft on August 2 and bottom out at −1.3 ft on January 23.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Sandy Hook, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Norton Point, Gravesend Bay, 2 mi away. For tidal currents, see Coney Island Channel, west end.

Predictions are based on Sandy Hook.
