About the tides at Jamestown

This is a mixed-tide station. Some days bring a deep low and a shallow low, and a few days have only one of each. The mean range is small, about 1.9 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 2.2 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 2.8 ft on September 30, and the lowest is −0.6 ft on January 23.

This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. NOAA measured the tide here from 2010 to 2024 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Scotland, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 14 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Jamestown Island, Church Point.
