About the tides at Rockland
Rockland has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. With a mean range of about 9.8 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 10.6 ft. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 12.6 ft on January 23 and bottom out at −1.9 ft on January 23.
Predictions for Rockland 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 1945 to 1987 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Thomaston, 5 mi away. For tidal currents, see Rockland Harbor Breakwater.
