About the tides at New Bedford Harbor

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Marine Terminal, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The average range is about 3.6 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is smaller than most Massachusetts stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 4.0 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 11, with a range of 4.7 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 3.3 ft.

Marine Terminal is a NOAA water level station with a live gauge, updated every 6 minutes. Predictions come from the station's own tide records. It was established in 2022. The nearest other station is Clarks Point, 2 mi away. For tidal currents, see New Bedford Hurricane Barrier.
