About the tides at Hainesport

Hainesport has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. The average range is about 3.5 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. The next spring tides peak on October 10, with a range of 4.1 ft. Neap tides follow on Monday, when the range shrinks to 3.0 ft.

Hainesport is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is North Branch, 1 mi away. For tidal currents, see Edgewater Range at Devlin Range.
