About the tides at Gross Point
Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.8 ft. The pattern follows the reference station at Bar Harbor, Frenchman Bay. Gross Point sees a mean range of about 10.0 ft. Low tide can expose a wide area, and the return is fast. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 13.2 ft, comes on October 26, and the smallest, 7.0 ft, on Monday. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 13.1 ft on August 4 and bottom out at −1.8 ft on January 23.
Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Bar Harbor, Frenchman Bay, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Sandy Point, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 12 min later. For tidal currents, see Verona I., N of, Easter Ch., Penobscot R.
Predictions are based on Bar Harbor, Frenchman Bay.
