About the tides at Mill Basin
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. The pattern follows the reference station at Sandy Hook. The range is large, about 5.0 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 7.1 ft on August 2, and the lowest is −1.5 ft on January 23.
Mill Basin is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Sandy Hook: highs come about 28 min and lows about 4 min later than there. The nearest other station is Plumb Beach Channel, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 26 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Canarsie (midchannel), Jamaica Bay.
Predictions are based on Sandy Hook.
