About the tides at Point Judith

This is a mixed-tide station. Some days bring a deep low and a shallow low, and a few days have only one of each. On a typical day the water moves about 3.0 ft between high and low. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 3.4 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 4.1 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 2.9 ft, on Sunday.

Predictions for Point Judith come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here from 1987 to 1997 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Narragansett Pier, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 16 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Harbor of Refuge, south entrance.
