About the tides at Pleasantville
Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.8 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The pattern follows the reference station at Atlantic City, Atlantic Ocean. The average range is about 4.0 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 4.5 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 27, with a range of 5.5 ft. Neap tides follow tomorrow, when the range shrinks to 3.1 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 5.6 ft on August 2, and the lowest is −0.9 ft on January 23.
Pleasantville is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Atlantic City, Atlantic Ocean: highs come about 60 min and lows about 97 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here from 1977 to 1978 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Dock Thorofare, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 5 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Absecon Inlet.
Predictions are based on Atlantic City, Atlantic Ocean.
