About the tides at Salisbury

Salisbury 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 3.0 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is larger than most Maryland stations on this site. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 3.9 ft. Neap tides follow on Tuesday, when the range shrinks to 2.8 ft.

This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. The nearest other station is Whitehaven, 12 mi away, where high tide comes about 29 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Salisbury, 2 miles below.
