About the tides at Little Deer Isle

Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.6 ft. The pattern follows the reference station at Bar Harbor, Frenchman Bay. With a mean range of about 9.7 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 11.7 ft, comes tomorrow, and the smallest, 6.6 ft, on October 19. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 12.4 ft on August 4 and bottom out at −1.8 ft on January 23.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Bar Harbor, Frenchman Bay, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Center Harbor, 6 mi away, where high tide comes about 7 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Howard Ledges, NE of, Eggemoggin Reach.

Predictions are based on Bar Harbor, Frenchman Bay.
