About the tides at Nummy Island

Nummy Island has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The average range is about 3.8 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. The next spring tides peak on October 10, with a range of 5.0 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 4.1 ft.

Nummy Island is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is West Wildwood, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 25 min later. For tidal currents, see Cape May Harbor entrance.
