About the tides at Freeport

Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.4 ft. The pattern follows the reference station at Sandy Hook. The average range is about 2.8 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is smaller than most New York stations on this site. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 4.1 ft on August 2, and the lowest is −0.9 ft on January 23.

Freeport is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Sandy Hook: highs come about 37 min and lows about 55 min later than there. The nearest other station is Baldwin, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 22 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Jones Inlet.

Predictions are based on Sandy Hook.
