About the tides at Democrat Point

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Democrat Point, 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 2.5 ft between high and low. That is smaller than most New York stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 3.3 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 1.8 ft, on October 18. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 3.6 ft on August 2 and bottom out at −0.7 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 Oak Beach, 0.5 mi away, where high tide comes about 3 h 2 m later. For tidal currents, see Fire I. Inlet, 0.5 mi. S of Oak Beach.

Predictions are based on Sandy Hook.
