About the tides at Monhegan Island
Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.8 ft. The range is large, about 8.7 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 11.0 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 8.3 ft.
Monhegan Island is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Portland: highs come about 13 min and lows about 9 min earlier than there. The nearest other station is Burnt Island, 7 mi away.
Predictions are based on Portland.
