About the tides at Hillsboro

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.5 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. On a typical day the water moves about 2.1 ft between high and low. That is larger than most Maryland stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.9 ft, comes tomorrow, and the smallest, 2.0 ft, on October 7.

Predictions for Hillsboro come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. The nearest other station is Dover Bridge, 11 mi away, where high tide comes about 1 h 43 m earlier. For tidal currents, see Dover Bridge.
