About the tides at Island Beach, Sedge Islands

Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.0 ft. The pattern follows the reference station at Sandy Hook, Fort Hancock. The mean range is small, about 0.3 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. That is smaller than most New Jersey stations on this site. The next spring tides peak on October 10, with a range of 0.4 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 0.3 ft.

Island Beach, Sedge Islands is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Sandy Hook, Fort Hancock: highs come about 180 min and lows about 236 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here from 1976 to 1977 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Barnegat Inlet, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 3 h 7 m earlier. For tidal currents, see Barnegat Inlet.

Predictions are based on Sandy Hook, Fort Hancock.
