About the tides at Fire Island Coast Guard Station

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.5 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The mean range is small, about 1.9 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. That is smaller than most New York stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 2.2 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 2.7 ft on July 4, and the lowest is −0.5 ft on January 23.

This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. NOAA measured the tide here from 1989 to 2014 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Democrat Point, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 40 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Fire I. Inlet, 0.5 mi. S of Oak Beach.
