About the tides at Prospect Harbor

Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.9 ft. The pattern follows the reference station at Portland,casco Bay. Prospect Harbor sees a mean range of about 10.1 ft. Low tide can expose a wide area, and the return is fast. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 13.3 ft on December 25 and bottom out at −2.1 ft on January 23.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Portland,casco Bay, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Winter Harbor, 3 mi away.
