About the tides at Fort Hamilton

Fort Hamilton has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The pattern follows the reference station at Sandy Hook. The average range is about 4.5 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 6.4 ft on August 2, and the lowest is −1.3 ft on January 23.

Fort Hamilton is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Sandy Hook: highs come about 2 min and lows about 7 min later than there. The nearest other station is USCG Station Ny, 1 mi away. For tidal currents, see The Narrows.

Predictions are based on Sandy Hook.
