About the tides at Gravelly Point
Gravelly Point has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. Gravelly Point sees a mean range of about 17.9 ft. Low tide can expose a wide area, and the return is fast. That is larger than most Maine stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 18.7 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 20.9 ft, comes on October 27, and the smallest, 14.2 ft, on Monday. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 20.2 ft on November 25 and bottom out at −1.4 ft on January 24.
Predictions for Gravelly Point come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here in 2010 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Birch Islands, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 6 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Estes Head, Eastport.
