About the tides at Guard Shore

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 Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel. The average range is about 2.2 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 3.3 ft on September 30, and the lowest is −0.7 ft on January 23.

Guard Shore is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel: highs come about 246 min and lows about 287 min later than there. The nearest other station is Muddy Creek Entrance, 1 mi away, where high tide comes about 8 min later. For tidal currents, see Long Point, 2.0 n.mi. northeast of.

Predictions are based on Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel.
