About the tides at Princes Bay

Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.7 ft. The pattern follows the reference station at Sandy Hook, Fort Hancock. The average range is about 4.7 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. The next spring tides peak on October 10, with a range of 6.3 ft. Neap tides follow on Saturday, when the range shrinks to 4.7 ft.

Princes Bay is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Sandy Hook, Fort Hancock: highs come about 0 min and lows about 6 min later than there. The nearest other station is Rossville, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 20 min later. For tidal currents, see Seguine Point.

Predictions are based on Sandy Hook, Fort Hancock.
