About the tides at Manasquan Inlet

Manasquan Inlet has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. The pattern follows the reference station at Sandy Hook, Fort Hancock. On a typical day the water moves about 4.0 ft between high and low. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 4.5 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 5.1 ft, comes on October 10, and the smallest, 3.8 ft, on Saturday.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Sandy Hook, Fort Hancock, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. NOAA measured the tide here from 1982 to 1984 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Brielle, 1 mi away, where high tide comes about 6 min later. For tidal currents, see Manasquan Inlet.

Predictions are based on Sandy Hook, Fort Hancock.
