About the tides at Goose Creek entrance

This is a mixed-tide station. Some days bring a deep low and a shallow low, and a few days have only one of each. The pattern follows the reference station at Sandy Hook. The mean range is small, about 0.4 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. That is smaller than most New Jersey stations on this site. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 0.5 ft on July 5, and the lowest is −0.1 ft on January 23.

Goose Creek entrance is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Sandy Hook: highs come about 246 min and lows about 269 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here from 1976 to 1977 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Coates Point, 1 mi away, where high tide comes about 6 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Point Pleasant Canal, north bridge.

Predictions are based on Sandy Hook.
