About the tides at Hawkins Rec. Park

Hawkins Rec. Park usually gets one high and one low tide a day, known as a diurnal tide. Water here rises and falls only about 1.4 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.3 ft, comes on Saturday, and the smallest, 0.5 ft, on October 8.

Predictions for Hawkins Rec. Park come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. The nearest other station is Shield Point, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 13 min earlier.

Tide predictions and water levels from NOAA CO-OPS. For planning only, not for navigation. Real water levels can differ because of wind, air pressure and river flow. Always check conditions on site.
