About the tides at Mills Point (south of)

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Wicomico Riv., Md., each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. Water here rises and falls only about 1.6 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. That is larger than most Maryland stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.1 ft, comes on October 10, and the smallest, 1.5 ft, on Sunday.

Mills Point (south of) is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Lower Cedar Point, 8 mi away, where high tide comes about 17 min later. For tidal currents, see Rock Point, Wicomico River entrance.
