About the tides at Merrimacport

Merrimacport has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. The range is large, about 7.0 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 7.7 ft. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 8.4 ft. Neap tides follow on October 9, when the range shrinks to 7.2 ft.

This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. NOAA measured the tide here in 1989 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Salisbury Point, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 34 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Newburyport, Merrimack River.
