About the tides at Kingsmill
Kingsmill has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. On a typical day the water moves about 2.2 ft between high and low. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 3.0 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 2.2 ft, on Monday.
Predictions for Kingsmill come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. The nearest other station is Fort Eustis (Marad), 6 mi away, where high tide comes about 23 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Hog Point.
