About the tides at Hunts Point
Hunts Point has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. The pattern follows the reference station at Kings Point, Long Island Sound. With a mean range of about 6.9 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. That is larger than most New York stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 9.7 ft, comes on October 27, and the smallest, 5.0 ft, today. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 9.1 ft on September 30 and bottom out at −1.8 ft on January 23.
Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Kings Point, Long Island Sound, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. NOAA measured the tide here in 1981 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is North Brother Island, 1 mi away, where high tide comes about 6 min later. For tidal currents, see Hunts Point, southwest of.
Predictions are based on Kings Point, Long Island Sound.
