About the tides at Great Machipongo Inlet (inside)

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 Ocean City, Fishing Pier. The average range is about 3.8 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is larger than most Virginia stations on this site. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 5.7 ft on November 25, and the lowest is −1.4 ft on January 23.

Great Machipongo Inlet (inside) is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Ocean City, Fishing Pier: highs come about 65 min and lows about 56 min later than there. The nearest other station is Upshur Neck, 7 mi away.

Predictions are based on Ocean City, Fishing Pier.
