About the tides at Park Turn

Park Turn has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. The average range is about 2.1 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 2.4 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 2.8 ft on September 30, and the lowest is −0.4 ft on January 24.

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 2007 to 2009 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Hopyard Landing, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 59 min later. For tidal currents, see Port Royal.
