About the tides at Prudence Island

Prudence Island has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. The average range is about 3.7 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 4.1 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 10, with a range of 4.9 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 3.4 ft.

Prudence Island is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Newport: highs come about 8 min later and lows about 3 min earlier than there. NOAA measured the tide here in 1977 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Conanicut Point, 3 mi away. For tidal currents, see Dyer Island, west of.

Predictions are based on Newport.
