About the tides at North Foreland

Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 1.2 ft. The tide range here is very large, about 18.1 ft on average. Water can come in faster than you can walk across flats. Check the time before you go out. That is larger than most Alaska stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 21.0 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 11, with a range of 24.9 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 14.2 ft.

This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. NOAA measured the tide here from 1977 to 2008 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Point Possession, 25 mi away, where high tide comes about 22 min later. For tidal currents, see North Forelands, 2.5nm northeast of.
