About the tides at Hollywood Beach
Hollywood Beach has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. Water here rises and falls only about 1.1 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. That is smaller than most New Jersey stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 1.3 ft, comes on October 10, and the smallest, 1.0 ft, on Sunday.
Hollywood Beach is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Weir Creek bridge, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 2 h 34 m earlier. For tidal currents, see Maurice River entrance.
