About the tides at Philadelphia, US Coast Guard Station, Pa.
Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Philadelphia (USCG Sta.), Delaware River, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The range is large, about 6.1 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 6.7 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 7.4 ft on August 3, and the lowest is −0.5 ft on January 25.
Philadelphia (USCG Sta.), Delaware River is a NOAA water level station with a live gauge, updated every 6 minutes. Predictions come from the station's own tide records. It also reports water temperature and air pressure. It was established in 1989. The nearest other station is Philadelphia, 1 mi away, where high tide comes about 16 min later. For tidal currents, see Kaighn Point.
