About the tides at Kent Point Marina

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.3 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. Water here rises and falls only about 1.1 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 1.6 ft. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 1.9 ft on July 31 and bottom out at −0.4 ft on December 25.

Predictions for Kent Point Marina come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here from 1996 to 2000 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Claiborne, 5 mi away, where high tide comes about 7 min earlier.
