About the tides at Kings Point
Kings Point has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. The range is large, about 7.2 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. That is larger than most New York stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 7.8 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 9.4 ft on September 30, and the lowest is −1.7 ft on January 23.
Long Island Sound is a NOAA water level station with a live gauge, updated every 6 minutes. Predictions come from the station's own tide records. It also reports water temperature, wind and air pressure. It was established in 1998. The nearest other station is Willets Point, 1 mi away, where high tide comes about 6 min later. For tidal currents, see Throgs Neck, 0.3 n.mi. NE of.
