About the tides at Montauk

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.6 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. On a typical day the water moves about 2.1 ft between high and low. That is smaller than most New York stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 2.5 ft. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 3.2 ft on July 3 and bottom out at −0.6 ft on January 23.

A live NOAA gauge measures the water here, and predictions are calculated from this station's own records. It also reports water temperature, wind and air pressure. It was established in 1947. The nearest other station is Lake Montauk, 2 mi away. For tidal currents, see Rocky Point, 2 miles Wnw of.
