About the tides at Guilford Harbor
Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.4 ft. The pattern follows the reference station at Bridgeport, Bridgeport Harbor. With a mean range of about 5.2 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 5.7 ft. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 6.4 ft on September 2 and bottom out at −1.1 ft on January 23.
Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Bridgeport, Bridgeport Harbor, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. NOAA measured the tide here in 1993 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Sachem Head, 3 mi away. For tidal currents, see Sachem Head, 1 mile Sse of.
Predictions are based on Bridgeport, Bridgeport Harbor.
