About the tides at Longport (inside)

This is a mixed-tide station. Some days bring a deep low and a shallow low, and a few days have only one of each. On a typical day the water moves about 3.8 ft between high and low. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 4.3 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 4.5 ft, comes on Sunday, and the smallest, 2.9 ft, on October 18. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 5.2 ft on July 4 and bottom out at −0.8 ft on January 24.

Predictions for Longport (inside) 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 1977 to 1978 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Dock Thorofare, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 32 min later. For tidal currents, see Absecon Inlet.
