About the tides at Long Point

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.4 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The pattern follows the reference station at Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel. The mean range is small, about 2.0 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. That is larger than most Maryland stations on this site. The next spring tides peak on October 25, with a range of 2.7 ft. Neap tides follow on Monday, when the range shrinks to 1.3 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 3.0 ft on October 27, and the lowest is −0.7 ft on January 23.

Long Point is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel: highs come about 319 min and lows about 347 min later than there. The nearest other station is Colburn Creek, 0.6 mi away, where high tide comes about 20 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Big Annemessex River Entrance.

Predictions are based on Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel.
