About the tides at Darien

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Darien River, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. With a mean range of about 7.1 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 8.7 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 7.4 ft, on Sunday.

Darien is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Champney Island, 3 mi away. For tidal currents, see Broughton Island (south).
